@Bogle_MEd @Doug_Lemov Yes! there's a significant body of research that suggests we are much more likely to remember what we've written by hand than typing. #scienceofreading

@GauravDubay3 @Doug_Lemov Yes! people often think kids need more practice with a skill when they struggle with inferences. what they really need is more knowledge. #scienceofreading

@HenrySeton Yes! and important to continue to feed that background knowledge throughout the novel. students are more likely to engage when it feels most relevant. #scienceofreading

@KimRamadan absolutely! as syntax becomes more complex, the ideas in the text often do as well. so students face a double challenge of making meaning of challenging texts when they are dysfluent

@HenrySeton Yes! spending time reading, especially aloud, is so critical for building fluency. and rereading is a powerful way to build confidence and fluency with dense text

@lcgeography @Doug_Lemov totally agree! and that continuity and connection will be as critical as we move back to in person instruction. #LessonsLearned

@MsGTweetsStuff @TeachLikeAChamp @Doug_Lemov yes, and ensuring kids had quality of education this year was more critical (and more challenging) than ever this past year. what a great way to create echoes of the classroom with physical reminders. #LessonsLearned

@EdLightPBC Being able to see their child's work is so important for parents/caregivers and empowering for kids to see how their work changes over time. #LessonsLearned
