Anyone worth their communication salts will be able to spin doctor a satisfactory self-certification.
Good to see NY emphasizing the role of quality curriculum. 🙌
But, is self-certification likely to yield good outcomes? Will any district believe that the curriculum is non-aligned with best practices?
We have doubts.

Will school districts certify that programs like Reading Recovery are evidence-based?
And, if they do, how will stakeholders and @NYSEDNews respond?

Members of the UD_SSC Literacy team (with former SSC leader @BookwormsRW) heard from @ReadingShanahan on the topic of raising reading achievement with the use of challenging texts. What an inspiring talk! @SteveAmendum, thanks for inviting us! @UDCEHD
I had a great day facilitating PLC’s for K-5 staff in Michigan, where we analyzed where and how the science of writing occurs in @BookwormsRW, and then engaged in some powerful collaborative planning.
This is the ultimate definition of differentiated instruction!

So it's reading time for those who can read, but instruction and intervention for those who are still learning to read.
If the majority aren't reading, it will be difficult to shut the class down to have a "quiet 20" for those who can.
