What is your theory of change these days? Asks Eve Tuck:

"It could be what we talk about when we are on an outing with an old friend, when we are texting before a date, when we wake up startled in the night, tangled in the covers.”

Here's another good example of respectfully debunking a common learning myth (in this case, learning styles) and then providing alternative options (differentiating based on prior knowledge, strategies, interest) to help educators replace the myth. Kudos! https://t.co/S8qtiKq9jG

Study: A delay in learning to read has no effect on reading fluency at age 11; indeed, later learners had slightly superior comprehension. Also, as other studies have shown, explicit instruction usually wasn't required for phonemic awareness: https://t.co/npEr3k1tUT
