It's easy to be principled in the yellow zone, when your tribe is behaving admirably. A person's true colors are tested only when yellow isn't an option—when their team and principles are in conflict. Tribal loyalty and principles can't both be sacred—you have to choose one.

My regular plea to teachers: "Please ditch the traditional weekly word list. The only way students learn to spell & read words is through orthographic mapping. The assignment of the traditional weekly spelling list does the opposite of orthographic mapping. #DitchTheWordList

My teachers wanted a clear picture of Tier 1 learning. This was the result. Something that allowed for a teacher autonomy & creativity, also providing years worth of growth impact built into the design to make learning happen & gaps close. Included in my book.

Would this benefit students at your school? Looks like AP has taken a page from IB to offer a diploma. #education #edutwitter #k12 #teachertwitter apcentral.collegeboard.org/c…
