This piece by @ShawnaCoppola on the reading wars is exactly what we all need to read right now. So spot on. Hits the important parts. community.theeducatorcollaborative.com/three-importan…
Just got misquoted in the NYTimes. Ugh! What the NYTimes said: Half of a reading lesson should be spent on phonics. What I said: There should be any equal emphasis on decoding & knowledge building. Half of a PHONICS lesson should be spend on applying it to reading & writing.
ILA Brief: Children Experiencing Reading Difficulties What We Know/What We Can Do "unsupported claims/recent articles that all students should receive the same decoding content in the same sequence and in the same way, which is not supported by research. literacyworldwide.org/docs/default-s…
The “Reading Wars”, aka, “Putting Phonics First” ignite every few decades into a firestorm. nytimes.com/2020/02/15/us/… Legitimate, civil discourse is nec but missing. Readers need both systematic, explicit phonics AND interesting texts, choice, & time to read. It’s not either, or.

Dear @educationweek : If you persist in pushing the "science of reading," you must not prop up your arguments with ***unscientific surveys and anecdotes***. Meet the standards you expect of others, and do the due diligence, or listen to the profession.
Heads up @NYCSchools the main web page says no school 9/30-10/2. If you click, the correct dates are there, 9/30-10/1. A couple of confused parents are asking about it.
Our upper elementary students need to #play as they learn. @DonorsChoose! I'd love your help to bring our FabLab to life: donorschoo.se/e/jsBoxyA43T
Trump says we have more women in Congress than at any time before. True! But... 1. A huge number of them got elected by running against him in 2018 2. There are only 13 Republican women out of 200 members in the House. 13!
Help our kids play more as they learn!! @DonorsChoose! Check out our project: donorschoo.se/e/jsBoxyA43T

My 4-year-old daughter demanded, "Teach me these words so I can read this!" My daughter was only alive for 20% of the Obama years, and even she knows... Michelle Obama is a role model, period.
