Volume in reading matters! Students reading texts they can and want to read throughout the day increase their vocabulary, critical and analytical thinking, develop the imagination--and most of all build their love of reading! @ERobbPrincipal @DrMBEdmunds @WSroufe @DoctorSam7

Great Summer Professional Development! Reading and writing go hand in hand!

[Jennifer Serravallo @JSerravallo]

This summer, we'll focus on using mentor texts to teach strategies from The Reading Strategies and Writing Strategies Books. Free, no registration. Just make sure you're part of the Reading and Writing Strategies Facebook Group and you're "in."

The “Reading Wars”, aka, “Putting Phonics First” ignite every few decades into a firestorm. https://t.co/RBrdPPuTtm
Legitimate, civil discourse is nec but missing. Readers need both systematic, explicit phonics AND interesting texts, choice, & time to read. It’s not either, or.
