A central premise of Portuguese education policy is that it is not necessary to categorise in order to intervene. This is helping to foster positive attitudes to learner diversity. An important message here for policy makers in the UK and elsewhere.

A well-rounded collection should have books (like those featured on this list) that center people from marginalized communities and their authentic experiences. @KaraNewhouse ow.ly/PDpW50CGn1V

Our recent article focused on phoneme awareness and early phonics for preschoolers featured on 7 News this evening @FlindersRISE @FlindersEPSW @ReadingDoctor
It's the way many of us began our reading and writing journey, sounding-out segments of words and then joining the sounds. Now a new study has found phonics lessons help pre-schoolers learn to read better and faster, but the approach does have its critics. #7News

Research shows that social and emotional learning has significant academic, career, and lifelong benefits. It's time to stop calling them "soft skills." #SEL xitter.cf/edutopia/status/101391…
