@tetheredtoed1 A reading problem first. And our reading scores are so low many kids that can do math well won’t be able to even access this problem.

@SamanthaBrauns2 @karenvaites @sstollar6 @SoRclassroom @HKorbey @CurriculumIP This is embarassing at this point. It is old news. How does anyone in education not know at this point. Shameful.

@MissyPurcell @JoanneLeeJacobs So sick of this new narrative. Maybe if schools taught more than 40% of students to read we’d knock out a contingency of kids who now need special Ed services because Tier 1 has proven useless to too many kids with normal and above normal IQs (who just need structured literacy.)

@educator4ever36 Starting w/Colleges of Ed. If 20% of teachers banned together + wrote to Deans of their College-copied the Pres., Alum Dir + most impt, the Dir of Advancement + Alumni Advancement + gave their letters some social media love, with colleges tagged, we’d see change. Call them out.

Ohio just did something bold: it audited all 50 of its colleges of education.

Now school districts should use that data when hiring teachers.

If a university refuses to teach the Science of Reading, districts should stop recruiting from them. Period.

Kids shouldn’t pay the price for failed reading instruction.

Other states should follow Ohio’s lead.

@jarredgeller To the adults.

@smorrisey Sadly few kids in intervention are receiving intervention with any effectiveness.

[LiteracyMomTruthBomb @LitMomTruthBomb]

@FixingEducation Anyone who has remotely been paying attn in the area of literacy knew that this was an issue 10 years ago. This is nothing new, or shocking, and like the IReady story, our national investigative reporters are sorely and inexcusably late to the party.

@cecegkh The bar keeps dropping and then we wonder why classrooms are filled with disrespect and lack of proficiency in all subject. Adults need to stop bowing to children and do their jobs. This is an adult problem… adults need to fix it.

[LiteracyMomTruthBomb @LitMomTruthBomb]

@FixingEducation Because the priority in education has become about funding adults vs teaching a younger generation.

[LiteracyMomTruthBomb @LitMomTruthBomb]

@FixingEducation There would fewer IEPS if schools taught reading, writing, + math effectively. Too many kids are drastically behind & eventually everyone is looking for something to blame it on (very common with SLD). “Ineffective instruction” for many is exactly what it is.

[LiteracyMomTruthBomb @LitMomTruthBomb]

@FixingEducation “Research-Based” b/c anyone can say something “works”… then the entire ed establishment follows suit & adopts it, shares the same poor proof as to why they adopted it & the cycle repeats again & again until everyone is using something that everyone says works, but doesn’t.

@LJ198767 @MrDanielBuck If there isn’t, and tax paying communities can’t rely on their public schools to educate students, then why continue with the farce?

@alt_w_v_g I just read this to my husband. I think you could be friends or relatives. 😆

@LizStepan The results of 6 years of elementary school not going its job of relentless foundational skills focused instruction to mastery.

@clharrington024 That’s what is working intentionally in Stubenville, OH in the face of poverty!

[LiteracyMomTruthBomb @LitMomTruthBomb]

@dmxfury @clharrington024 You think BOE’s know anything about curriculum? Ha! For ours, final data is brought to BOE meeting & stated “let’s go” by staff. “Research is done/approve it/trust us.” Any rebuttal or ?s causes staff to call in the legislators to speak about which they know 0 to hamper votes.
