@ItsHelloCoCo I always appreciate knowing so that if the kiddo is struggling I know why and can help them through the rough times during the day.

We spend 50% more hours in school than Finland. They get 15 mins of recess every hour. They have NO standardized tests except for PISA in HS & they outperform us every time. The irony is that they created their system based on US schools and US university research in the 1970's.

@nicksofio @mrs_stirling Can I come if I bring my dog cash?

[Clay Cook @DrClayCook]

When Tier 1 is weak, lots of students look like they need intervention.
When Tier 2 is weak, lots of students look like they need Tier 3 or special education.
Strong investments in Tier 1 & Tier 2 is a critical starting place for prevention.

Access gaps = outcome gaps.

Part of teacher and student burnout is the ridiculous amount of time we spend in school. We could go only Mon- Thurs and still attend more hours than many nations Including Finland.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

In 1970-71, education was the most popular field for U.S. undergraduates. Colleges issued 176,307 bachelor’s degrees in education that year, or 21% of all degrees conferred.

In 2019-20, less than 4% of bachelor degrees were in education.

From 21% to < 4%!!
Think about that. 🤔
