Loved Professor Hart’s class! Congratulations and happy retirement!

[Wroxton College @WroxtonCollege]

Professor Hart retired from Wroxton at the end of the Spring semester after 25 years of teaching! We caught up with her before she left and asked her some questions about her time at the College. Wishing you a happy retirement, Wendy! #wroxtoncollege

Hawaiian born Colonel Ellison Onizuka was the first Asian American and the first person of Japanese descent to reach space.

Onizuka oversaw primary payload operations aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery in 1985. Before joining the crew, he had already logged 1,700 flying hours.

This week's must-read:

In EdWeek, @Elizheubeck covers important studies on the limits of phonics instruction and the relative importance of oral language and vocabulary development.

'Students performed better on standardized assessments when teachers routinely taught new vocabulary and encouraged more than one-word responses during comprehension lessons.

“Certainly, there are teachers who are letting the other pieces of the literacy block crowd out the comprehension instruction,” Troyer said.

That doesn’t bode well for students, according to the researchers. More time spent on phonics was associated with lower DIBELS scores, whereas more time spent on comprehension was linked with higher scores on the standardized tests designed to evaluate literacy skills in K-8 students.'

Haunted by this passage from Fahrenheit 451 in which a retired professor describes how the abolition of reading began with the shuttering of newspapers and the closing of college humanities departments.

Our newest exhibit is now on display!

Just hours after adopting the Declaration of Independence, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams were tasked with creating a national seal. It took more than three committees and six years to complete the final design.

Wishing you a week filled with admiration, respect, and hopefully a few sweet treats! You deserve it all.

The Jane Austen program spent a wonderful week at Wroxton. As well as attending lectures on Jane Austen and her books, they also had a private walking tour of Jane Austen's Bath and attended a Bonnets and Breeches Regency dance session, in full costume of course!

Students should read 25 books or book-equivalents each year.

In every elementary grade.

Looking back at the standards my Mom worked from in the 2000’s, I’d say we lost something.

Marcie from Peanuts cast in bronze, reading quietly on a bench outside the Central Santa Rosa Library in California. Part of Santa Rosa’s public tribute to Charles M. Schulz, the sculpture turns an ordinary seat into a small monument to reading, imagination, and comic-strip history
