From educator Gwen Blumberg: “Whose voices are heard the most in our classrooms? Teacher voices? Kid voices? The same kid voices? Talk is an art & we can teach kids to grow this skill like any other.
I keep coming back to the progression of talk shared by Cynthia Satterlee at The Teachers College Reading & Writing Project reunion & the importance of lifting the level of student talk. I remade her graphic and added a few talk prompts to help make this a teacher scaffold & hopefully a kid tool.
Building off the work of: Katy Wishow, Shana Frazin, Donna Santman, & Gaby Layden."

So, lesson plans should be created based on the instructional needs of students in a particular classroom. Can someone explain to me how pre-made lesson plans can do that?
🌟 Big congratulations to Sam Mormando, Christine Gumpert, and Julie Devine on the publication of their insightful book, "Navigating the AI Revolution in Our Schools"! 📚

Why support students’ meaning-making skills when they read? You’ll boost classroom conversation and place learning in students’ hands. 🚀 🖐️ @kdbiens explains how: https://t.co/PX5txzumYz
Preparing learners for our information-rich world means designing reading experiences that establish learners as meaning-makers rather than meaning-receivers.
We've made history! Today, the Delco community came together and donated more than $1,580,987 for nonprofits serving Delaware County. The outpouring of generosity we witnessed in the last 24 hours is absolutely incredible.
