This was such a great session!!

@ILAToday This was such a great treat!!!

FREE ICE CREAM! 🍦 Stop by Experience Columbus for a treat (while supplies last) & learn more about #ILA2020 in Ohio. #ILA19

It’s the conversations we have with children around books that matter the most @donalynbooks #ILA19 #heartstringtruths

Everyone has a story. We need to check our privilege. We need to check our power. We need to listen with compassion and learn from our students! Tiana Silvas #ILA19 #G2Great

@tianasilvas hits it out of the park: “Social-Emotional Learning can’t take place in our classrooms if we don’t check our privilege.” #ILA19

@geralddessus brings it to the point: Social Justice is messy. SEL is messy. We have to give our students tools to deal with their trauma. #ILA19 #truthtalks

Nell Duke closing thoughts: Our field is in a very tumultuous time so we must commit to civility even in the face of the uncivility of others. Many people talking about science of reading have never opened a research article or done so w/o a confirmation bias. #ILA19 #G2Great

“You don’t get to opt out of Social-Emotional Learning. We are humans. There are emotions.” @2018LATOY #ILA19

You are not ever going to convince me you only teach certain kids - we don’t pick and choose kids, we take and advocate for every single one!

Thank you for this @PDavidPearson

“Teachers need to get to know the backgrounds of their students. . . We can’t separate literacy instruction from lived experience.” #ILA19 @GwenMcMillon

Morning kickoff at #ILA19 starting the critical conversation on what the research says about teaching reading
