Mystery Pictures in room 124-Ss use the 🔦 to reveal a hidden pic, word or letter, then place accordingly… use simple matching image to image, letters to beginning sound, picture to word, or by categories depending on skills

Motivation-Ppl like a challenge & kids are people. When u ask them to take on something hard, let them in on the secret so they can take on the challenge with the right mindset & so they can be proud when they meet the challenge –& we will make sure that they meet the challenge

Another fun way to complement your systematic and explicit phonics program into body breaks!!
Research suggests: Consider integrating whole body movement into the learning of ABCs! 🤸 🔠 Learn more about the research here: https://t.co/M0Gs2Yyuvm

Yes!! That is the key - seems like it would be easier since you give them 1/2 the sentence, but alas, no! They have to think harder.
@thismomloves @margaretmckeow2 I did this last year-at first I thought it was going to be “easier” b/c I did it as a scaffold but quickly noticed that it was trickier for Ss ….AND that they were making better & awesome connections & sentences! I havent read this (yet) but adding to the expanding #tbr list! ❤️

Controlling parenting isn't good for kids. It puts their well-being at risk. 238 studies, 38 countries, 126k ppl: Kids with controlling parents have higher rates of depression and anxiety. Kids with autonomy-supportive parents are happier. Freedom is a foundation of well-being.

We celebrate our learning at end of each day in all of our classes! In class #4 we share what we are proud of and why. “I am proud of my writing” Because… “I added all capital letters to the start” Building oral language and confidence! @ReadALotLDSB

Last day of small groups @ReadALotLDSB - these assistants lead our word chains! Incredible seeing students read each word (from code they hadn’t yet consolidated just weeks before!!!) & guide their peers! Amazing! Have a great summer & happy reading!

After 10 years, it’s time to pass the @ReadALotLDSB torch to @MrsMatthewsLDSB! I’ve been incredibly proud of the countless lives touched and the lifelong love of reading this program has inspired. Thank you to all our amazing staff and students. 📚 #EndOfAnEra

❤️ When #students dysregulate and exhibit unexpected behaviors, they are thinking with the emotional part of their brain at that moment. This is not a teachable moment. It is a time to connect, not correct. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter

During the last few minutes of small literacy groups, students played “be the teacher” - they planned & led word chains based on the targeted code they have been working on @ReadALotLDSB @MollyBrant_LDSB to showcase & extend their learning with their peers 🎉
