@drewpolly With this new tool, we have to make sure teaching reading doesn’t become a checklist of isolated skills. Lets not forget that reading is not isolated; it happens authentically within the context of quality literature!

Reading @lester_laminack and @ktkelly14's READING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE yesterday (reviewed today) has me thinking: Many districts focus on WHAT a student does after reading text, but little consideration might be given to how that text got to the reader? HOW and WHY of selection.

Student reading stamina should increase throughout the year. How are you measuring stamina? @BentonHeightsES #Literacy4U @AGHoulihan

And yet we continue to write our checks on the nonsense computerized program and celebrate the holy-grail-quick-fix-empty-promise-in-a-box mentality. I find that baffling. Love this comment so much Nell! #G2great @franmcveigh

Anyone who tells you they have "the" answer/key/cure/solution/secret to all students reading at grade level doesn't.

A5: SEL is so much more than teaching behavior...every lesson should have both a social goal and an academic goal. We can't teach one without the other--as @TimShriver says, the head and the heart come together into our classrooms. #collabclass #EdutopiaChat

When reflecting w Ss after reading, don't just ask what they learned. Ask what they learned about themselves as readers. @DrMaryHoward #g2great @Paramus_Schools #ParamusLearning @HeinemannPub #littogether

Embedding word work during guided reading allows for differentiation and is an extension of word study. WS shouldn’t be taught just one isolated time during the day but across the day. That is balanced literacy. @UCPS_ICTeam @AGHoulihan @Renee_McKinnon1 @jttopp #Literacy4U

Kindergarten students @PorterRidgeESNC are using unifix cubes to separate the phonemes they hear in words. Phonemic awareness is crucial to a strong reading foundation! @UCPS_ICTeam #Literacy4U @AGHoulihan @bradbreedlove90 @Renee_McKinnon1 @jttopp
