Being read to is awesome.

Folks who struggle to read without audio, benefit from tracking the audio while reading the same book. It improves word recognition, pronunciation, and fluency.

I shared this article in Wisconsin last week... AMAZING, right? I listen to several books a month now because of my commute to campus, and I've come to love being read to. How about you? #booklove
Audiobooks or Reading? To Our Brains, It Doesn’t Matter
Stories stimulate the brain in the same way, regardless of whether they're read or heard.

My grade 4 students wrote their responses in a Padlet. I created the structure. We talked about the prompts. They added their comments using their one-to-one devices.

Re-reading this gem 20 years later. So many great reasons to use this method. Truly hoping for texts that connect with spelling patterns. Words Their Way #iteachreading #edChat #eduSky #ontEd

Over the last 5 months I have been updating my research on reading comprehension, both in terms of my methods and in terms of new studies. This process has led to me changing my position on the importance of knowledge and reading comprehension.

Please provide interactivity that doesn't require touching each other. Some folks (young and old) just don't want to do that.

I don't have to be #neurodivergent to not want to touch you.

*I and you in general, not personally.

Try a close read of "I Have a Dream" by Martin Luther King, Jr

It's a treasure trove of literary devices wrapped up in truth and power.

📖🎙️LibriVox is another great audio book option. They started up about 20 years ago. Great library. Easy and free to use. Their books are in the public domain, so there is that.

The very cool thing OneNote can do (that nothing else can) is embedding PDFs. I love that I can design a unit or course and put the printable PDF in the notes. Later, double-click print or present.

Meet one of my favorite storytellers. Toby explains current events with facts and illustrations that connect the reader to the topic. I love how the stories connect to my life. They're thought-provoking and timely. My students love them. 🤩

Here's a new comic I've been working on with CreativeNZ, trying to explain the state of arts funding in NZ. It's a been a big project, hope it helps. In some ways it's complex, in other ways it's simple: art and creativity are a public good thespinoff.co.nz/partner/29-1...

We all appreciate the arts – but how well do we know how they’re funded, or what’s needed to support the creative ecosystem?

The front cover of the picture book MOO HOO by Audrey Perrott and Ross Burach along with a five star Amazon review that reads: A hilarious picture book that’s full of heart & social emotional learning. MOO HOO is a hilarious picture book that is also full of heart and social emotional learning. So many kids and adults will relate to Milton the cow and his big feelings. The fun wordplay and the bright illustrations that contain many details and jokes make this book a rollicking good time!

A graphic that shows the front cover of the picture book ALPHABUDDIES by Beth Bacon, Karen Kane, and Eric Barclay, cartoons letters z, a, and g, and a 5-star review that reads: A perfect read aloud that connects to letters and taking turns! This picture book would make a perfect read aloud for pre-k to grade 2 when children are learning letters, sounds, and alphabetizing. This book is full of fun wordplay and colorful, playful illustrations. Children will certainly relate to the argument between the letters about wanting to go first! Check out Alphabuddies!

Sometimes I let them explore so I can figure out what they know/ don't know/ are curious about.

Most worksheets are a waste of time, energy and resources.
