The public debates about direct instruction, memorization, and phonics are all horrible because so much of the arguing is based on mischaracterization The so-called "progressives" are not against any of these but tend to argue: Not if, but when, and how/how much

My son playing Rest by @foofighters on the piano this afternoon has me in tears. It’s one of the most beautiful tribute songs ever written. Just gorgeous. ♥️🎶#MusicSaves

This entire movement has always been about exclusion over access.
For the record, teaching HMH with fidelity means denying children access to books

"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh. There was a pause. "Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet. "No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do." "That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend. "What are you doing?" asked Pooh. "Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either. "But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh." And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right." A.A. Milne Sending thoughts to those having a Difficult Day today and hope you have your own Piglet to sit beside you. ~ A.A. Milne, Winnie the Pooh

How do we guide students to achieve success, in school and in life? Engagement is the key, but where do we begin? And what might success look like in the end? Here is one way to think about it.

Monday briefing: Children have knowledge outside of what we teach them. We need to honor and build upon that. Restricting academic work to only "the things that have been taught" is robbing children of their full potential.
