I tried this w/5th gr Ss who r tough 2 engage. The result was amazing. When asked 2 show that they knew the answer, all ✋ raised, some digitally but I'll take it! When asked who wanted 2 TELL me the answer, all ✋ stayed up! Lots of great answers too! @JillACarter1 @L_DeDeo

@franbowman1 Having my students read like snakes has made a HUGE difference in their decoding and fluency.

#bcps17og2020 #bcps16og2020 This technique just really works when kids sound out like bunnies in a staccato fashion instead of like snakes who slide and glide!

This new short pamphlet by Louisa Moats, ‘Teaching Reading IS Rocket Science: 2020’, is excellent. Well worth reading and sharing with colleagues: aft.org/sites/default/…

@VC2Farlow @dhaney16 @heather_lundy I love it!!!

Today I introduced the /oo/ sound by mixing some ingredients in a glass of milk- they wanted me to drink it! It was a fun way to have them hear the oo sound! Their faces were priceless! I could see them all cringing and mouthing oooo! @colly_edwards @dhaney16 @heather_lundy
