@HVCyr @FaithBorkowsky I started taking LETRS Training in my district. It’s fantastic. If you need a refresher, or an unpacking of the science of reading.

Great tips! I started creating Jamboard assignments for K-2.

Student agency is about empowering students to know themselves better, determine who they want to be and identifying steps we can take together to have this goal become a reality. @trev_mackenzie @rbathursthunt https://t.co/JP5UnrBYgo

It’s great for teaching character traits too! My students enjoyed identifying which habits characters used and which they needed.

More than ever I think we need to teach the 7 Habits of Happy Kids. I love these. They are good for adults too. https://t.co/sZi8FoY6Kp

[LiteracyHead @HeadLiteracy]

Yes! We need to teach how reading is purposeful, enjoyable and not a chore in order to cultivate students as lifelong readers.

Reading is a skill that everyone can grow to love, but too many negative experiences during a child’s literacy education can result in trauma that appears as boredom, apathy or even anger. https://t.co/YVodmyO1HH

In a series of high-profile moves, educators, policymakers and parents have begun turning away from Lucy Calkins' materials. Now, Calkins' group at Columbia is signaling a shift in thinking about how their work aligns with scientific research on reading. https://t.co/vH6e1VabWb
