A problem with the Science of Reading is it focuses primarily on phonics without considering the myriad of variables affecting how children learn to read. Having well-resourced school libraries is one of those critical variables. nancyebailey.com/2020/03/01/the…

Way to go! I know a lot of work goes into accreditation.

@srothschild1 Why? Most local school boards have policies in place for this, and he knows that since he likes to visit and express his concerns at board meetings.

State Board of Ed member Zeck has requested a future board agenda item on school libraries and other education materials. He said he wants to look at "some of the books that are in libraries of schools." #ksleg #ksed

@PrincipalCCW For busier campuses with more drivers, I can understand. However, when it’s a campus with limited visitor parking, and custodians and teachers that often show up earlier and stay later than admin, I don’t think it’s needed. There are other easily accessible spots w/o a sign.

This makes for great conversation. What are your thoughts?

School for our children is around the corner. It’s time to help our #teachers with their #clearthelist to ensure they have the supplies they need. If you are a teacher, please post your list and #retweet this tweet. #clearthelistforteachers

I recognize some faces! Great leaders!

This is cool

So this happened today. MSE in Curriculum and Teaching, Reading Specialist Endorsement. Still some work to do to be “done”, but getting close. #thankful #couldntdoitwithoutmyfamily #ku #teacher #readingspecialist

@areteagape @theDRAMAgoat1 My students love tech free days.

Would you teach at a tech-free school? (Like paper and pencil only, no phones, w a school library for research.) Why or why not? #Discussion

@DrTinaEllsworth That’s a frustration point. Culturally responsive teaching also has the abbreviation CRT, but it’s not the same thing. I didn’t learn about CRT until grad school for my second masters this past fall. Definitely not teaching that in my 3rd grade classroom.

@NLevendofsky Mine voted yes. Wouldn’t even matter if all of his constituents said to vote no. He does what he wants.

@meischa @NLevendofsky Mine is the same. He doesn’t listen to people if they don’t share his views. He just pushes on through with his agenda of tearing apart schools and our community.

@NLevendofsky Mine voted yes and never wavered. He’s more concerned with his conservative voter “grade card” through KPI. It’s pathetic. He’s pathetic.

@Linda4Kansas The arts are important!

Lots of talk about low test scores today. Yesterday in education, we learned that kids participating in state honors ensembles scored 8.6 points higher on the ACT. Maybe instead of talking about vouchers, we should be talking about investing in music ed. #ksleg #ksed

@Linda4Kansas @srothschild1 @kneanews Absolutely not true. I was on my computer conversing and helping students and parents most of the day. I was creating videos for those that couldn’t get on the computer until later so they didn’t miss out on math topics and read alouds.

Attention teachers! Speaker at the well just said you were handing out packets during the pandemic and not checking your computers. That’s certainly not what I saw. What say ye @kneanews? #ksleg #ksed
