Yes yes and yes— and we need to train, develop, and support early childhood educators with the knowledge and tools to provide rich phonemic awareness, print concept, and alphabet knowledge instruction. It starts in pre-service and professional development.

[Nell K. Duke @nellkduke]

🎗️There should be no high-frequency word (aka "sight word," although that's a misnomer) instruction in preschool. Much better to spend that time on phonemic awareness & alphabet instruction.
🎗️When high-frequency word instruction does occur, it's imp. to engage children in . . .

NEW THIS MORNING: Reading Recovery, one of the world’s most widely used reading intervention programs for young children, took a hit to its credibility today following the release of a new study at the American Educational Research Association conference. https://t.co/6Cvbax4jwJ

The idea that different students have different learning styles is the education myth that just won’t die. It’s been definitively debunked by cognitive psychology and neuroscience research.

1/ Maus has played a vital role in educating about the Holocaust through sharing detailed and personal experiences of victims and survivors. On the eve of International #HolocaustRemembranceDay, it is more important than ever for students to learn this history.

[Oprah Daily @OprahDaily]

As a girl, @Oprah dreamed of becoming a teacher & inspiring her students to be “more than they thought they could be,” just as her teachers did for her. Now she's making her dedication to teaching tangible through a $1 million grant for @TeachForAmerica. https://t.co/fOw0WyzTP6

Similar stark numbers in Pre-K attrition and enrollment decline. Pre-K and Kinder providers need to be in tandem now more than ever— And partnering within the Birth-3rd grade continuum. #OneDayStartsinPreK

[Elisa Villanueva Beard @VillanuevaBeard]

Increasing access to early learning has always been a critical issue in our country. Now it’s more important than ever. Every student deserves the chance to do and be whatever they want in life, and that journey starts with high-quality pre-K and kindergarten.

[Brooke Crum @broocrum]

“This is going to happen over an entire school year and then through the next year. We need to have a continuum of excellent teaching and learning, not just one school year,”@caylacalfee said. “This is a long-term effort rather than a race.” #txed #tellewa https://t.co/HqMGdyJf0w

Margi is an incredible leader, educator, and advocate. Thank you, Margi!

Margi Bhansali, @TeachPlusIL ECE Fellow, gives her pre-k students a sense of normalcy and a solid foundation in their first year of formal schooling. #ThankATeacher #TeacherAppreciationWeek https://t.co/9KLq0YFfnu

[CAP Early Childhood @CAPEarlyEd]

Did you hear? New Mexico just approved a HISTORIC proposed amendment for investing in #ECE 🎉

In upcoming state elections, voters can decide on passing a dedicated funding source of $1 billion for early childhood programs over the next eight years!

There is currently no empirical evidence for "learning styles" and yet the vast majority of educators believe in the idea. Even more pre-service teachers (95%!) agreed that matching instruction to "learning styles" is effective. https://t.co/qaU9J2cg3i

[edutopia @edutopia]

After tracking a group of young children in the 1990s, researchers determined that the number of words children hear at home dramatically impacts their early language development. But new research calls this into question.
