NEW: Last school year, a 7th grader viewed 4,700 YouTube videos during class.

An 8th grader viewed 5,700 videos in class.

A 2nd grader viewed ~500 in just 2 months.

Less than 5% were educational.

@nbcnews analyzed the YouTube watch histories of students from across the country. My new story shows how far some take it on their school laptops and iPads -->

What if the middle school kids were never taught to read in the first place? The decoding threshold is what PDs leave out. If a student can’t read most of the words accurately, scaffolding won’t get them to comprehension. They check out, and you get the mayhem. Rigor starts with access. Same topic, text they can actually read!
