Great info, thank you @burnsmk1 for taking a deeper dive into the data to support when and how productive struggle should be incorporated into teachers instructional repertoires. The negative effect size for grades 2-5 speaks volumes!
Does productive struggle support initial learning of reading and math skills? Here is a brief video reviewing the research. https://t.co/BVxoXqI3De

Math Fact Intervention Resource update (M.I.N.D. 2.0 - Facts on Fire). I have been collaborating with teachers this last year in an effort to provide a new set of resources that are designed to provide some fact fluency activities that are a little easier to implement and sustain

I’ve done many writing episodes this season, including the very popular Writing Revolution episode. Great to end this season talking with a researcher- who has always been one foot in the classroom - about what research implies for writing instruction! https://t.co/uH3Vr14swe

John Mighton is one of the most genuine and humble people I have ever met. I’ve known him for over 10 years now, and he continues to amaze me. He’s done so much great work for Canadian kids.
MAKING MATH STICK: Canada's national treasure, John Mighton, founder of @JUMP_Math does it again. He makes Math understandable and that's a tremendous gift. Ty @johnmighton for your support from the very beginning. You are the trailblazer! #rEDTO25 #JUMPMath
