When you hear me talk about – and implore advocates and journalists to talk about – dosage, this is what I mean.
Time is a precious commodity in a school day, and we need to treat it as such.

One of my favorite things about UFLI: it asks 30 minutes a day from teachers for foundational skills work. Teachers in this study were spending 30 min/day. The attention that the UFLI team gave to creating an effective program *within a 30 minute window* is laudable. We still live in a world where the “Science of Reading” encounters resistance for being over focused on phonics, and for robbing time from other valuable and exciting work like getting kids into rich texts. If your program is 30 minutes/day, you leave plenty of time for the other essentials of literacy. AND - if a 30-min program has gone viral within the Science of Reading community, that says a lot about the demand in that community.

A class-action lawsuit was filed today in Massachusetts against the publisher, Heinemann, its top authors Lucy Calkins, Irene Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell, and Columbia University. apmreports.org/story/2024/12/…

"The question now is whether Calkins is so much a part of the problem that she cannot be part of the solution. 'I’m going to figure this out. And I’m going to clarify it or I’m going to write some more or speak or do something or, or—fix it.' But can she? Can anyone?"

Lucy Calkins was a superstar of American education, @helenlewis writes. Then she was blamed for the country’s literacy crisis. Can she reclaim her good name? theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

Empower students by giving them the choice to refocus through action—turning moments of fidgetiness into opportunities for self-regulation. The first time or two it was a little disruptive but then it became a natural part of our routine.

What can neuroscience tell us about teaching #reading?

What do you think of "phonics first" or "phonics only" approaches to beginning reading?

The decision by Florida to allow veterans to teach without degrees isn’t the answer to the teacher shortage.
This wouldn’t be allowed in any profession that requires a degree (engineer, law, medical, etc.), and shouldn’t be allowed in education.

Building relationships with your students doesn’t fix everything, but it does fix a lot of things. It’s not magic, but no one should deny that it creates something magical within the classroom. #RelationshipsMatter
