Centers do not have to be an exclusively elementary activity. Students of all ages should be working in research-based practices aligned with fluency, comprehension, writing, and decoding!
When we talk about the need for “knowledge-building curriculum” in the earliest grades… We’re talking about something cooler & more inspiring than you might think. Building science knowledge in @co_sumner elementary classrooms: @scottlangford72 @jhesson83 @kylecraighead85

What do elementary schools administrators need to know about literacy? In our collaborative webinar series with @NAESP we covered key skills administrators need to build and sustain a robust schoolwide multi-tiered system of supports in reading: leadforliteracy.org/videos/leading…
"While some may think read alouds should be reserved for students in the primary grades, there is research to support that students benefit from being read to daily in all K-12 grade levels." The Hidden Power of Read Alouds: ascd.org/el/articles/th…
What an ending to a fantastic camp. We started with our own AJ Hampton, and ended with Bud Foster. Thank you alumni, coaches, and guest speakers for making this camp something to remember. @CoachHarless55 @coachfostervt @LBHS_Cavaliers
“…focusing on literacy skills within the disciplines brings to life a much richer schoolwide curriculum as students learn how to use literacy for different purposes in various subject areas.” Disciplinary Literacy: A Shift That Makes Sense: ascd.org/el/articles/di… #edchat
👂 From @cultofpedagogy: "Just the act of listening to a good narrative helps your students become better learners. Podcasts are a screen-free, movement-enabling, ear-stimulating and eye-opening way to deliver content." cultofpedagogy.com/podcasts-in-th…
Critical work was done during our Assessment Summit. The first of many conversations as we modernize the Assessment and Accountability system in Virginia. The context, dialogue, and deep dive will all lead us forward! Thank you, @emc7x @gareis @VA_Supt @VDOE_News! #Elevate
Thanks to @burgess_shelley for this guide, for principals, to providing effective/supportive feedback.
