Thinking about creating a portable vowel valley and consonant sound wall on a tri-fold. Tips for implementing this as a push in/pull out reading teacher? #sor #soundwall

[Sonia Karmily @KarmilySonia]

@kellygrillo You never know when you will need them! I just open up a new internet window altogether at this point lol

All too much, we rely on intervention. Investing in rich curriculum and classroom teachers knowledge of the curriculum, may help prevent that lag in student achievement.

[Clay Cook @DrClayCook]

When Tier 1 is weak, lots of students look like they need intervention.
When Tier 2 is weak, lots of students look like they need Tier 3 or special education.
Strong investments in Tier 1 & Tier 2 is a critical starting place for prevention.

Access gaps = outcome gaps.

What are some World Read Aloud Day activities you have done in the past that were successful?! Looking for some inspiration! #worldreadaloudday

[Simon Sinek @simonsinek]

The joy of leadership comes from seeing others achieve more than they thought they were capable of.

No better gift than a book! Filling up our students at home libraries this holiday season 📚🎁 #booklove

Tip of the day:
"Students don't learn words as a visual unit so giving them a list of words every week to memorize is not effective. Students learn words as individual grapheme-phoneme correspondences". Please consider tossing the list.

[Sonia Karmily @KarmilySonia]

It's important to remember that SOR is not a curriculum, it is not just a certain set of strategies to try. When we understand how the brain learns language, we are then better equipped to give meaningful and purposeful instruction.

[Institute for Multi-Sensory Education @IMSEOG]

Teaching the science of reading helps teachers understand how the brain learns language and the natural learning process. Understanding how to teach reading can dramatically change the educational system.

Good morning! You can completely change someone’s day or even the trajectory of their life when you point out the skills and gifts you see in them. Sometimes others just need to hear it from someone else to light a fire within them. Lift up with your words today!👊

[Institute for Multi-Sensory Education @IMSEOG]

This needs to be shared. 💙

[Emina McLean @EminaMcLean]

Is it just me, or do The Science of Reading and Science of Learning movements seem to be eating themselves alive? They’ve become cultish? Hasty, poorly understood implementation runs rife as does dubious commercialism. Let’s strip things right back to the basics of best practice.

[Ms. Benison- @BenisonMrs]

Tip of the day:
Word shapes are not effective. Instead do word mapping.

[Jeanne Martino Schopf, M.Ed, NBCT, C-SLDI @JeanneSchopf]

“Beginning in third grade, approximately 60% of words that students encounter in text are constructed of derivational morphemes,” Nagy and Anderson. Morphological awareness must be explicitly taught in our classrooms. #scienceofreading
