This blog post from @PamelaSnow2 is brilliant. Favorite quote: “Putting adjectives in front of the word ‘literacy’ is not an acceptable substitute for teaching children how to read.”

"Podcasts, articles, & editorials are scaring the public into thinking that somehow teachers have been hoodwinked... ... and Kinder and 1st grade teachers are not teaching kids their ABCs." – Lucy Calkins, via her new website 😳

Phonics: there's a lot of energy warning vs too much phonics bc it'll be boring.
Knowing the reality in schools, interviewed people who own tutoring services, and worked in adult and youth prisons... too much systematic phonics is the very very very last thing I'm worried about.

See you there!

“Reading several texts on a single topic is like activating Velcro in students’ brains, to which more knowledge can be added and from which references can be drawn for future use in different settings.”
Curriculum Matters@CurriculumMatrs
Which is better for supporting reading comprehension, units designed around topics or themes? “Does it even matter? We subscribe that it matters. A lot.” Don’t miss the latest from @MJLiben, David Liben, and Sue Pimentel: #satchat #KnowledgeMatters knowledgematterscampaign.org/post/scaling-t…

“You cannot use poverty as an excuse. That’s the most important lesson,” Deming added. “It’s so important, I want to shout it from the mountaintop.” What Mississippi teaches, he said, is that “we shouldn’t be giving up on children.”
