In your career, the most valuable currency is not how much you know. It's how well you learn.

In a stable world, success depended on building expertise. In a changing world, it hinges on evolving expertise.

Potential is no longer defined by ability. It's a function of agility.

Students should read and write every day...
with intention.

[Knowledge Matters @KnowledgeMatrs]

Reading + writing about learned material is critical!

Writing instruction within content literacy looks different than the writing models used in most classrooms.

This makes so much sense.

[Dr. Shelley Blackwell, SLP.D @sblackwellslpd]

💯🙌🏻 I struggle when I see blends being taught as a unit because they are two *separate* sounds. It’s more important to perceive both sounds than to memorize them as a unit.

Wise words from Anita Archer #archerism

“Children who struggle when reading texts aloud do not become good readers if left to read silently; their dysfluency merely becomes inaudible."
-Mark Seidenberg

This quote changed how I thought about education!

Good news for Texas!

The best part of what's included in the bill: "an infrastructure of support so that educators are able to make the needed changes".

We can make all kinds of changes, but without a foundation of effective education systems, it will not be sustainable.

"We have no reported incidences of children dying of practice. Instead, look at the abundant research from cognitive science on learning from practice."

It's ok to change your opinion when evidence supports that your opinion needs changing.

Significant growth can only happen in a coherent system.
Distributive leadership allows for expert voices to be heard and trusted.

[Kareem J. Weaver @KJWinEducation]

How many roles should separate the "Literacy Lead" and the superintendent?

The person has to be close enough to be heard and have enough positional authority not to be run over by the internal opposition.

[eduFocusPLC @eduFocusPLC]

Our schools will not get results if we are constantly putting out fires or subscribing to the newest fad.

Let's get back to basics and focus on what we know to be best practices in literacy and instruction after years of evidence.

Automaticity with basic facts➕ does the same for students in math.

Thorough planning does the same for teachers👩‍🏫 during instruction.

By placing less of a demand on working memory🧠, the more we can leverage teaching and learning😀.
