Dyslexia is a neurobiological difference in how the brain processes language. It has nothing to do with effort or intelligence, and support starts with knowing that. #ScienceOfReading #DyslexiaAwarenessMonth hubs.ly/Q04Bjq1V0

October is Dyslexia Awareness Month, and we will be including dyscalculia too. Students who struggle with reading or math both deserve early, real support. #Dyslexia #Dyscalculia #DyslexiaAwarenessMonth Understand what's beyond the label of dyslexia: hubs.ly/Q04B8HsG0

Our most recent blog is about catching the moments when students finally get to "got it!" before they slip away, with a documentation habit simple enough to actually keep up with. Notice, Document, Respond. Three moves, one cycle. Read about it here: hubs.ly/Q04z2RfJ0 #StudentData #DataInformed #ClassroomObservations

"Our students saw double-digit growth in Math, Science and ELA... over a two-year period." — instructional coach, Charles City School District How learning progressions can sharpen what teachers notice: hubs.ly/Q04yRkN_0 #StudentData #LearningProgressions #DataInformed

Data doesn't have to be a burden. It can be a compass. New blog, first in a 3-part series on data in K-12: hubs.ly/Q04y5GLk0 #DataInformed #CollectiveEfficacy #SchoolLeadership #K12Education #DataDrivenInstruction #InstructionalCoaching

Collective efficacy has one of the largest effect sizes on student learning, 1.57 per Hattie, meaning its impact massively exceeds a typical year of learning. How data conversations build it, or quietly kill it: hubs.ly/Q04y5FHk0 #DataInformed #CollectiveEfficacy #SchoolLeadership #K12Education #DataDrivenInstruction #InstructionalCoaching

Data rich, information poor. A familiar problem in schools. Constance Hallemeier, M.Ed. on shifting from data-driven to data-informed: hubs.ly/Q04y1KTS0

Four priorities, not fourteen. Named owners. Honest dates. What makes a data-driven plan actually hold, from Part 2 of our series. Catch up on both before the week's out: Part 1: hubs.ly/Q04xnGyZ0 Part 2: hubs.ly/Q04xnGCM0 #K12Leadership #DataDrivenDecisions

"Grade 6 is low" is an accusation. "Grade 6 has drifted for three years" is a description of a system, and no one owns three years of drift. New on the blog: hubs.ly/Q04xnF_S0 #CurriculumLeadership #EdLeadership

Part 1 shows how to build the chart. Part 2 shows what to do with it once it's on the screen.   Together, they're a full playbook for a data review that ends in shared priorities. Part 1: hubs.ly/Q04xnFvv0 Part 2: hubs.ly/Q04xnFvw0 #K12Leadership #SchoolData
