The teachers who make the greatest impact are the ones who change their minds. #multiplyexcellence

As I noted yesterday, the “unexpected” nature of reading struggles is definitive in who is diagnosed with dyslexia. We should sit w/the tension of who we *expect* to struggle & how often that struggle is then pathologized & punished.

Sometimes… kids are just trying to make it through their day. Teachers need to understand this.

Outstanding educators come from all different backgrounds & there’s evidence that exposure to educators who share students’ diverse backgrounds & experiences can have powerful effects.

I teach upper elementary and need to do some whole group lessons on multisyllabic words using the 6 vowel types.
Any ideas or recommendations?
We don’t have a curriculum for this.
I’m looking at WV phonics but not sure what I think yet.

To reiterate what teachers have been saying for decades:
99.9% of the problems that students have to battle w/ and overcome would be resolved if teachers had smaller class sizes and, therefore, could develop a strong relationship with each student.
It is really that simple.

Every student deserves to learn how to read, regardless of circumstance or status. #MCLC

Some students have a hard home life… and sometimes, that shows up as a bad attitude at school. Teachers can’t fix the home situation… but I’m grateful for the ones who are understanding and patient. There is always something going on behind that “bad attitude.”

This is why Heart Words, and other phonics based approaches, are preferred. #MCLC

We love the trend of teachers giving their students board games to take home during the holidays. What a great way to get students solving problems and talking to others while away from school! #thankateacher #MCLC

Elementary students should not lose recess because they didnt turn in HW, and really shouldnt have HW anyway.
