Focusing on the 1st day/week is what teachers think about during in-service at this time of year! Soooo... is it truly worth the time and effort to try and teach something new?

[Debora Marines Teach Magically @TeachMagically]

@MsGHist Congrats!

[Debora Marines Teach Magically @TeachMagically]

@MrCarrOnTheWeb So sad. There are some great resources there and things like this makes us all look bad.

[Debora Marines Teach Magically @TeachMagically]

Thanks to all teachers out there getting their rooms ready for the new year! Your hours of prep are noticed!

[Debora Marines Teach Magically @TeachMagically]

Visual processing skills are needed for reading comprehension and handwriting! So practice handwriting to help with reading!

Balanced literacy has phonics!!! It's the part where "Does it look right?"

[Debora Marines Teach Magically @TeachMagically]

Phonemic awareness is important but teachers have to add phonics because there is NEVER enough time! https://t.co/S4wPdcXzyK

[Debora Marines Teach Magically @TeachMagically]
