"There are plenty of factors contributing to our ongoing slide, but I’m increasingly convinced a big part of the problem is that many stakeholders (from policymakers to parents to educators) are thinking about learning loss the wrong way." https://t.co/YSEULkQmyn

I keep seeing Tim Walz referred to as "blue-collar" and "working class," in part because of his past role as a teacher.

But teachers are college-educated, so shouldn't they be considered white-collar professionals?

Thoughts? @DanaGoldstein @Stephen_Sawchuk @palan57 @rickhess99

BREAKING: A federal court just ruled New Hampshire’s classroom censorship law is unconstitutional. The law discouraged discussion about race, sexual orientation, disability, and gender identity in the classroom.

This is a momentous victory for students’ right to learn.

Myth #7: We used to do a better job of teaching children to read

WRONG!

#Literacy rates have unfortunately not changed since before WWII. But research has evolved to provide great insights into how to teach children to read, and why some children struggle.

[Rosamund @rosepink]

@Doug_Lemov Apparently we can’t clarify this enough. The simplicity of the false idea trumps the complexity of how learning actually happens.
