How do we convince the young people in America that they are privileged (and not oppressed) to live in the freest and greatest country in the world? How do we persuade them to stop marching in support of murderous regimes like this? What will it take?

I am looking to research and do a deep dive into UFLI--I'm hearing great things, and I wanna see what it's all about.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of where I should start?
English
@VinceBoley There’s lots of webinars about using UFLI on the YouTube channel.
English
@CatherineCook58 Excellent! I'll definitely check out the YouTube channel

@0Beanie05923291 @neetu_arnold 🎯 Adults need to set boundaries for behaviour and apply meaningful consequences. It's in everyone's best interest.
English
@neetu_arnold This is what “gentle parenting” looks at scale in an educational setting. The adults relinquish authority, there are no meaningful consequences when students disobey, and chaos ensues.

California teachers w/30+ years of experience are leaving schools bc of student behavior issues. One blames PBIS:
“This positive behavior support where they really didn’t want any punishments for students who were acting out or misbehaving. So they were looking for positive interventions w/the idea that students —every once in a while— lose themselves”

Everyone teaching phonemic awareness READ THIS ‼️This blog skilfully explores the research as to why phonemic awareness should focused on blending and segmenting of individual sounds [rather than lots of time on rhyme, syllables]. ⏰Get up to date! open.substack.com/pub/scienceofr…

Happy to report that even if I'm the last guy to get there, I'm now on Substack.

@amypento I found I could never justify the amount of time spent managing devices with the amount of learning happening on them.

URGING people to read Boulton on math teaching
Wow
open.substack.com/pub/unstoppabl…
Kristopher Boulton@Kris_Boulton
When we think about teaching students a new mathematical process, our typical approach is to test for pre-requisite knowledge, and once we’re happy it’s there, I Do / We Do the whole process from start to finish. Do that a few times, and then You Do some independent practice. But what if that means we’re teaching mathematical concepts in the wrong order? Do you really need to start at the beginning each time? Spoiler: no, you do not. Atomisation shows us why not, where we should start instead, and how this massively increases the odds of student learning across all ages and ability groups. Link below 👇

Why can’t kids write? Hmmm. Such a mystery! This is “approved instructional materials” : (posted in a classroom I’m covering today)
English
“The other reaction is more pragmatic: Why should we expect any sane person to tolerate working conditions like this? If we want teachers to stay, the job itself has to be made manageable and physically safe.”

Education debates are full of self-assured voices—politicians and policymakers, union leaders, reform advocates, and researchers. But one group goes largely MIA from the conversation: teachers who have left the profession. My latest for @AEIeducation aei.org/education/list…

@MoreMorrow I loved my document camera, Visualizer, for demonstrating in the classroom before I retired.

Pen + visualiser for the win.
Agree with the point but the visualiser has been the game changer for modelling and interacting IMO
Sam Strickland@Samstricko181
Teaching with just a pen is a hugely under-estimated art that can have a profound impact on pupil learning…. It relies on the teaching being the expert.
