A New Era Begins

The Espy’s were an LSU showcase!! Feels like I’m in Baton Rouge.

If you wanna be stars kids c’mon on down the Louisiana!

[LSU Tigers @LSUsports]

Why wouldn’t you want to go to LSU?

[LSU Tigers @LSUsports]

Your Tigers are playing for a National Championship for the third time since April.

Why wouldn’t you come to LSU?

[Britton King @King_Britton10]

1000 percent agreed 💗

Are we doing elementary students a disservice by focusing on discrete skills over rich background knowledge when we teach #reading? Education writer @natwexler weighs in.

We’re shining in Purple and Gold tonight in celebration of @LSUwbkb’s National Championship

[Sean Morrisey @smorrisey]

I believe elementary teachers should spend time teaching academic vocabulary. I support direct instruction when initially learning new words. I focus on:
Student friendly definition
Morphology
Example
Picture
Writing to questions
Sentence Stems
Morphology Matrixes

[Weston Kieschnick @Wes_Kieschnick]

Your actions reveal far more than your words ever will. Walk your talk today my friends. #FridayMotivation

@JCLemoine1 I was thinking the same thing! Like no…🥴

[Britton King @King_Britton10]

@JCLemoine1 @bains_sch @BrittneyRosenb4 @AEwing76 @teachingwithtay @nicorrie @GeoAliM “In fact, studies suggest a poor reader who is well-versed in a particular subject often can make up for low comprehension simply by relying on their own background knowledge.”
Building background knowledge is KEY! 💗

[Britton King @King_Britton10]

@JCLemoine1 @BrittneyRosenb4 @nicorrie @thibodeaux_jill @teachingwithtay @torwms @bains_sch Yes yes yes!

[Wit & Wisdom English @WitWisdomELA]

Research tells us that a concentration on content—building knowledge about the world—profoundly influences students’ intrinsic motivation to read, grows their wonder, and strengthens their self-efficacy. #knowledgematters @ClassroomWonder

When I think I give clear, precise directions to my class. 😩
