@MmeLockhartLDS @ZebMic @C_Hendrick Thank you so much!

When students can’t find the "main idea", the problem is almost never a missing strategy.

@ONlit_social @acadience Thanks so much for clarifying!

@cmonson14 They are two scores from ORF - accuracy is % accuracy, and WC is words correct per minute (rate) - see @acadience

Pro: in tonight's Next STEPS book study, participants worked in small groups to use screening data to build instructional groupings. Con: Turns out Jamboard doesn't like having 150+ users working on one document 😂 So wonderful to connect and collaborate with Ontario educators!

@thismomloves Thanks for sharing!

@thismomloves Love this idea! What script/prompt do you use for your corrective feedback?

Daily “exit ticket” for last recess: I show animals (using CKLA cards from our current inquiry) & each child tells me the first sound in an animal’s name, with immediate corrective feedback as necessary. Stronger kids first so others hear several models & have smaller audience.

Attention #kindergarten & #grade1 teachers! I am looking for participants to engage with four 6-minute “micro” units to boost their alphabet instruction! There will be a brief survey pre- and post-video watching & 2 months later. Details & consent here: bit.ly/3RKKgQW

@teacher_kath @TDSBWilkinson Outstanding! Looks like so much fun!!

A 🧵about the digraph deep dive happening @TDSBWilkinson! Tier 1 lessons (gr.1&2) are accessible for all with explicit instruction & active student engagement. We now know a digraph is 2 letters (grapheme) making 1 sound (phoneme) & we ❤️ this song! rb.gy/erla 1/4

@Rabia_Khokhar1 Congratulations! I look forward to reading it!
