We had our first 50% ST Math Party today during lunch. They enjoyed making a penguin to add to the wall and eating lunch with the teacher. I can’t wait for the next one! @rennellredhawks #WeAreRennell @STMath We even watched a video of Jiji cheering us on!

What can we read to learn more about reading science? This list from @ehanford is so helpful! Let's start with #1: @reading_league's Science of Reading Defining Guide. 1/6

What a special experience yesterday when @DrAnthonyMS students came over to read to our @rennellredhawks 😍 They were so positive, patient, and creative with their book choices and questions! #WorldReadAloudDay #3rdrrific

One of the most pointless behaviour tips you can give: 'build a relationship with your class.' Not because it's not true, but because it tells a trainee nothing about what to *do*. Often they vanish down a rabbit hole of trying to amuse or please the class. Chaos ensues

Kids don’t need to be sitting down to learn to read!
Grab your Toss Across. Proof that #phonics does not have to be boring with this kind of blending practice! #phonicsactivities #sor @IMSEOG #earlyintervention #earlyliteracy @BrunswickEdu @BCSDPersonnel @BCSDVerhest

Sold a Story continues tomorrow with Episode 4, The Superstar. "If Beyonce came and gave a private concert in my district, it would not have been a bigger deal for many of my teachers." "She was like a rock star walking into that building." features.apmreports.org/sold…

Happy weekend everyone. If you've listened to Sold a Story and want to dig deeper into the "science of reading," I put together a suggested reading list. Episode 4 is coming Thursday. apmreports.org/story/2022/10…

There's so much to read on this topic. It was very hard for me to narrow it down to 10. Reply with your top suggestions on what people could read if they want to learn more about the science of reading.

“If I could give you one thought, it would be to lift someone up. Lift a stranger up - lift her up. I would ask you, mother and father, brother and sister, lovers, mother and daughter, father and son, lift someone. The very idea of lifting someone up will lift you, as well.”

We love equipping teachers with tools they can immediately implement into their classroom!
I learned so much at @IMSEOG ‘s comprehensive OG plus training, with focus on word recognition and spelling deficits. I can’t wait to bring these multi-sensory strategies back to the classroom!

Hey teachers! Are you still searching for the perfect first day of school read-aloud? You should definitely check out My Name Is A Story by @ashanti ! As a person who still encounters people who struggle to pronounce her name, this book touched my heart! @CFISD_ELAR2_5

Did you know today was National Book Lovers Day? Can’t think of a better way to celebrate than passing out new books to a room of #team4th @CFISD_ELAR2_5 teachers! #CFISDelarpd

Replying to @ehanford
The 1st question I was asked on my 1st job interview was “How do you teach a child to read?” It was like getting struck by lightning and affected everything I did after that—searching for the answer. That should be the 1st question in all teacher job interviews from now on.
