Too many popular strategies for teaching reading aren’t actually supported by research. We sifted through to find the ones that are most effective! 🔍
Which Reading Strategies to Try, and Which to Ditch
Research shows that some popular activities for reading instruction don't actually result in more fluent readers—so we rounded up the most classroom-worthy ones.

This. Don’t think the new box is going to be all you need.
(I’m saying this not to Ts but rather those behind the box-buying).

I wonder how many teachers are close to breaking down or have broken down privately? #teachinginapandemic

I miss school so much that today I sat my cat and dog down together to talk about bullying and how they need to get along and came up with a plan of action for them to do better tomorrow.

You don’t have to do a TikTok for them. You don’t have to rap for them. You don’t have to be a comedian for them. And you don’t need a creative handshake for every one of them.
Just take pride in your teaching, genuinely care, and be committed to the success of every student.

When my career is over… I don’t think I’ll remember test scores or curriculum maps. But I WILL remember some kids, and some teachers… and custodians, and nurses, ans secretaries, and paras, and counselors, and SROs, and CNP workers. It is the people that matter to me.

"Every time you think of calling a kid 'attention-seeking' this year, consider changing it to 'connection-seeking' and see how your perspective changes." Powerful thought from @JodyCarrington

Principals shouldn't have to push Teachers to give their all! As Teachers, we should give our all because the kids we serve deserve nothing less!

Positive Teachers are not Positive because their job is Easy. Instead, they are Positive because their job is Hard, and Positivity is what keeps them moving forward!

I don't like how we treat kids differently during testing season.
-more breaks
-more snacks
-more water
-encourage good rest
-no HW
-lower stress
-more recess
Why don't we do these things all the time? #edchat

I'm convinced that the most important word in curriculum development is "no." We layer program over program. We add but are reluctant to subtract. The result is clutter and the haunting feeling that we aren't doing anything thoroughly or well.

Today in Y6 we looked at poems that could be read forwards & backwards. I was stunned by this one written by one of my 10 year olds. Please share - I would love her work to be appreciated further afield. I wonder if it could even find a publisher?

Change your schedule and your environment if you have to. Don't let your surroundings be the reason you didn't meet your goal for yourself.

Some would say administrators should visit classrooms because that is how they can provide “Instructional Leadership.” That may be true. But I think they should be in classrooms, if for no other reason, so they always remember how challenging the work of teaching is. #Support
