@starrscience @NCTM This is a great article too. youcubed.org/evidence/fluen…

Timed fluency tests in math. Been strategizing against them for years! Then read this from @NCTM — a new source of evidence to provide teachers in my fight.

“The bottom line is that...They (policy makers)have created a system that incentivizes teachers to withhold the very thing that could accomplish both objectives: knowledge. All students suffer under this system, but the neediest suffer the most.” theatlantic.com/education/arch…

A3 - good project-based science (I’m not a principal) encourages student voice throughout learning! More schools should use this to change school environments! #MEMSPAchat

@OlmsteadBrayton @livwashmathsci @educationweek In #michigan we have been incorporating #KLEWS into many prof. Learning experiences, NGSX, NGSS intro, Science and Literacy, and have run several workshops @MSTAMich conference. Let me or @richbacolor or @JanKWDouglas know if you want to know more. @MiMathScience

We have 100s of teachers in Michigan with #CErBEST4NGSS CER posters hanging in their rooms! How many more pictures can we get posted using that hashtag!??? @ActivateScience @richbacolor @VogelWendi @MKGScience twitter.com/hhereau/status…

Concept-Oriented Reading Instruction outlined by @nellkduke is perfectly aligned to science instruction described by the K12 Framework and #NGSS. twitter.com/edutopia/statu…

Spelling Games help these 5th graders learn spelling patterns. #hobenrocks

Trying out our new unit built with 5 Tools. Thanks @starrscience @richbacolor
