I work with Rockstar teachers. It’s awesome learning something new everyday!

@greedisgood70 @LizAnnSonders @AtlantaFed The largest employer in the nation is RIF ing staff. The largest investor in the nation has reduced its grant funding. The largest investor will no longer be funding projects outside the scope of private companies RnD budgets. And I don’t have the space to discuss tariffs.

@bauhiniacapital @dampedspring Maybe you simplified it too much. How would you find the counter balance to the loss of the reduction of the impact illegal immigration spending etc. Where’s the balance side to the reduction in grant funds and wasteful spending that will no longer exist.

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@dampedspring @likethewolf1 Certainly consumption will increase to offset government spending. The fact that the largest employer (government) will be reducing its workforce will have no impact on consumption.

@elonmusk If only I had enough money or influence to change the current system. I guess I’ll keep building good habits, like recycling, hoping that one day I’ll be rich and powerful enough to change it or even build a rocket to fly away from the problem.

@SoundSyllable Thank you, I’ll check it out.

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@SoundSyllable Do you have any book recs? I’d love to learn more!

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@SoundSyllable At some point oral language has to be transferred to written language, the “scribes” do/did that - still do that. Then the social aspect may influence it over time too. David Crystal, Spell It Out is a great text. I also recommend The ABC and all their tricks.

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@SoundSyllable Agree, I’ll need to research that more. The role of the <k> may be pure meaning to distinguish <night> from <knight>. That’s plausible and fits with the functions of language. My initial thought appears to be wrong.

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@mandercorn I confess, I didn’t read the article. However, I’d add - and explicitly teach compound/complex sentences and cohesive devices. Showing them what makes them complex makes the practice even more powerful. In closing, I always enjoy your work on this platform. Very engaging.

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@mandercorn And I’d add even more for rationales for both. The additional rationales would be instructional based.

[D Hensing @djhensing]

@mandercorn In my opinion, all students should read the same text at times and different text bcs engaging with the same text allows students to have a shared experience and engaging with different text text allows them to engage with texts that interests them or help build spec. knowl gaps
