All kids don't have access.
All kids don't have proper resources.
All kids don't have support.
We have no clue what is going on in each kid's home. 💔
📷 Teaching is Intellectual – at Beech Grove, IN
Change almost never happens without collaboration. Great day of reviewing the components of effective literacy instruction and intervention and planning next steps with Lowndes County Schools Administrators, @Alabama_Reading Literacy Specialists, and Teachers. @lowndescandi
“Feedback is the breakfast of champions.”-Ken Blanchard. A great day of learning about intervention and @SweeneyDiane strengths-based feedback with @lowndescandi, @MPSAL, and Wilcox County @Alabama_Reading Specialists. Thanks for hosting us, @MorningviewEle1.
A wonderful day of learning about effective intervention and providing helpful feedback @MPSAL @T_S_Morris where the students are awesome and @Alabama_Reading Specialist @SandersTameka and the Leadership Team went all out to make us feel welcome.
...those days when you don’t feel like working, push through. It’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey-@kobebryant. Make it a Mamba Mentality Monday. Strive for excellence in all you do. Be inspirational, be legendary. #RIPKobe

What a time to be alive at @ChisholmSchool where it is Polar Express Day and volunteers from @frazerumc are planning with @MPSAL @Alabama_Reading Reading Specialist @rosalynfloydmp1 for implementation of a Readers are Leaders Tutoring Program.
“Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death“-Einstein. It was my pleasure to facilitate professional learning at Dunbar-Ramer School. These @MPSAL teachers are super excited to impleplement what they learned about Structured Literacy. @Alabama_Reading
Lowndes, Wilcox, and @MPSAL @Alabama_Reading Specialists developed and provided instruction using multisensory activities. Noticing and naming is really about formative assessment, and formative assessment is about zeroing in on how our students are performing. @SweeneyDiane
It is important that educators collaborate to continually improve their craft. Great day of learning with @Alabama_Reading Local Reading Specialist @FMcCoy13 and @MPSAL @ElementarySeth educators.
An awesome day of professional discourse at @SESScholars as @MPSAL and @PikeRoadSchools @Alabama_Reading Local Reading Specialists renewed a commitment to coaching for results... all students reading on grade level by tbe end of 3rd grade.
“Plan your work and work your plan.”-Napolean Hill @lowndescandi and @Alabama_Reading teaming up to plan for the successful implementation of Lowndes County Schools’ Literacy Plan.
These dedicated educators participated in professional learning in preparation for the upcoming school year. All agreed to apply the concepts and strategies that they learned to improve literacy outcomes for ALL of their students. #StructuredLiteracy @Alabama_Reading #SEARIC
“Individual committment to a group effort—that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.“-Lombardi. Alex City Schools K-4 teachers participated in a 5-day @Alabama_Reading Summer Academy to engage in professional learning. @AlexCityCats1

I certainly credit Guy for making 3 FT, but he never should have been on line. Obvious double-dribble was missed. What a gut-wrenching way to lose for Auburn.

Teach using systematic phonics and all kids will learn how to read, fewer kids will be funneled into special education and schools will save money. Everyone wins!

Absolutely one of the biggest mistakes administrators make is putting the coach in a supervisory role. Good intentions. Bad idea. – at Auburn, AL
Assistant Principals in @gcschools brainstorm solutions with @amausbach and @SweeneyDiane to the barriers of keeping the coach out of supervision. Clearly they are committed to the work!

Please read this entire thread! Whoa! NB teachers, AP teachers, all who believe in higher standards for students. Time to ACT. – at Alabama, USA
(Thread) BREAKING NOW: Less than 24 hours after it was introduced, the Alabama Senate Education Policy Committee advanced legislation to lower academic standards in Alabama schools. Contact your State Senator immediately and urge them to vote NO on SB 119! capwiz.com/state-al/home/

Another day of Winsor training with Montgomery County teachers.
So many little nuggets of information that these teachers are soaking up like sponges.

Sometimes, we don't understand what's happening around us. We can't see the purpose. We don't get it. That's when FAITH is most important. When you don't have the answers, choose to be confident in the One who does. Our God is faithful! #FaithHopeLoveSeries
