#WholeLanguage - Twitter Hashtag

about 2 months ago

I agree that it’s not an additional pillar but it’s an aspect of linguistics which I find teachers are particularly anxious about (a) because most of them weren’t taught grammar at school (thank you #WholeLanguage) and (b) they learned little or nothing about grammar in their #ITE. Teachers welcome this knowledge with open arms when they can access it.

The way reading is taught now is out of whack. The pendulum will swing back, but for now even our “grade level” kids struggle. #ReadingRecovery #readingcommunity The Science of Reading community will scream otherwise. #WholeLanguage #GuidedReading

🙏 👍 CBC’s Storyline! My only concern is the perpetuation of the myth that this is about #phonics vs #wholelanguage. Those who understand #literacy development know we must get the phonics piece right (no 3-cuing) AND develop knowledge & language. 1/2 https://t.co/2EsnjcG8Up

I love this meme, not because of the message so much as it demonstrates the efficacy of whole language over phonics-how did you decode this? Not by sounding out letters, yet you can easily read it. How? #WholeLanguage

If we want to celebrate peace on earth this Christmas, then perhaps we should be celebrating capitalism and everything it represents. #onpoli #cdnpoli #peace #wholelanguage #literacy #capitalism https://t.co/S23r43NLuG

GAMECHANGER. We as teachers have been sold a story about reading that isn’t true. Do you want to know how kids really learn to read? Listen to @ehanford’s podcast about #reading #learntoread #phonics #wholelanguage #readingrecovery #guidedreading https://t.co/TNgfO0COeg

It’s okay though, because they will build the skills once they have conceptual understanding 🤦‍♀️. Also, it doesn’t matter if they get the answer right as long as they engage in the reasoning process 🤣🤣🤣 From #wholelanguage to #wholemaths

@ehanford is unequivocally shining a light on this, allowing us to lead a charge out of the mess of #wholelanguage and #balancedliteracy. Thank you Emily Hanford !!

In preparing my talk for #sbpballarat on the weekend, I’m finding myself down some deep #wholelanguage rabbit holes! ‘Sorta loving it…

“In the never-ending reading wars, however, supporters of #WholeLanguage / #BalancedLiteracy aren’t ignorant of the research; they simply don’t care. They adhere to their beliefs and continue to deny reading science.” https://t.co/VQ12bdk4YK #ScienceofReading @Dale_Chu

#BalancedLiteracy and #WholeLanguage thrive on #SOR’s lack of focus on spelling proficiency and vocabulary knowledge in upper-elementary and secondary education.

@JamesMartinSJ If you are not pro whole life, you can't call yourself #prolife. It's not an ala cart menu of judgmental options. All life is sacred and God takes delight in every last sinner he created. #WholeLanguage @FrGregBoyle

Framing of the early reading issue: Presenting this as #phonics vs #wholelanguage surprised me. It tends to denigrate 20 years of #SoR research. That’s not original - See @ehanford who made that point recently in the United States.

What all #parents & #teachers (and those who teach THEM), should know about #ReadingRecovery & other #WholeLanguage approaches to #reading“...what we do know is that the kids that got it for some reason ended up losing their gains and then falling behind.” https://t.co/X3rbnfGFCb

Right to Read: What Happened in California to bring an end to #WholeLanguage programs? State Superintendent Bill Honig slayed the dragon, but it morphed into #balancedliteracy a decade later. That’s why #structuredliteracy is now hailed as an innovation. https://t.co/jZdoIU5WMs
