SD36 teacher. I love learning with people. My passions are literacy, art, nature, and making. I like to wonder and explore. SEL keeps me grounded and grateful.

[Darlene Archer @MsD_Archer]

Yes!!! Thank you Lynda for your delightful and practical books, which contribute to joyful reading! And for sharing this excellent article. When students struggle to read, there are many contributing factors. Keeping the joy and meaning in reading is critical.

Teachers need to know what the science says about phonics instruction, but they also need some room for discretion and creativity and joy. https://t.co/wXTiFZLbdN

Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, surprised, dumbfounded, flabbergasted, confounded, astonished, and numbed.

According to NYT, the pandemic has pulled reading skills "down into new territory.' And the solution? You got it...phonics. When will journalists recognize that children need a foundation of rich language interactions and content-rich playful learning experiences?

We don't always get a chance to visualize sea level rise. But this King Tide was forecast to push storm surge ~40 cm >than high tide. That's roughly what current climate projections have happening to Vancouver by 2050. Might not sound like much but it amplifies storms like today
