Love this!!!! So much fun reading, learning new things and celebrating! 🎉 🎈
🎈Our Kindergarten students brought Balloons Over Broadway to life today! After learning about the art and creativity behind the Macy’s Parade, they marched in their very own school parade. Their joy and imagination filled the halls! 🎉✨ #ReachingNewHeights #BalloonsOverBroadway

The science of reading isn’t just a matter of learning how to teach a new curriculum or new strategies — you may also have to unlearn some old habits."

Time and people are your two most valuable resources within the school. Invest time in the people that are in front of students. Problem solve together, practice together, and produce solutions and outcomes together. Human Resources have a high return on investment!

School culture is built moment by moment, interaction by interaction.
(Reminder via leader @EmilyAPaschall)
ALT "Culture isn’t just policies, procedures or relationships. It’s what happens when those things don’t work. It’s how we respond to ‘that kid.' It’s finding a way to reach every kid. Culture is doing whatever it takes to ensure all students succeed." —Leader Emily Paschall

There should be less of the blame game in schools & more of the claim game. Let’s collectively claim responsibility for the children on our watch, plan for desired outcomes, & teach with the art & science of teaching in mind. After the instruction, let’s reflect & respond!

No matter the tool, get to writing! 🖊️🖍️✏️
Writing is an essential component of literacy instruction!

Many teachers are unaware of the power of repeated reading. Repeated reading effect size is larger than the effect size of phonics. Putting the two together could be a real game-changer for teachers. This blog post gives the history behind Dr. Tim Rasinski's work in this area. It is loaded with great ideas for improving reading instruction in grades 1-5. .doctorsam7.blog/2025/10/18/f…

💯!!!! and not just the knowledge but the drive for implementation. It takes time and diligence! It is not a quick fix. You have to have GRIT!
Principals and district leaders must build their knowledge in the Science of Reading and Learning! The schools where real change is taking place ALWAYS have a principal and district leader with deep knowledge.
You can’t lead what you haven’t learned!
