Great afternoon of @Amplify CKLA at St. Francis.
It’s only right that you end the Kings and Queens domain with a Royal ball and Cinderella screening.

“The curriculum should be organized to systematically build knowledge.”
@natwexler challenges us to consider how we teach vocabulary!

Oral language lays the foundation for the #literacy children will develop as they progress through school.
Follow me this week for ideas on how early child educators can build oral language skills in young children!

"The report promotes “knowledge-oriented” curricula that are designed to systematically build content knowledge in science, arts and culture, and history across grade levels."

Today @teainfo Commissioner Mike Morath and Texas education leaders visited @ErmelES_AISD to learn how Aldine ISD is using the @Amplify reading curriculum. The campus was also able to highlight the work being done as an Additional Day School Year campus.

"A third-party review [of #tcrwp] conducted by JHU of the texts being used in our classrooms revealed that Ss were being exposed to a steady diet of texts that lacked the depth & complexity expected for the grade level."

"Reading comprehension is not a skill someone learns and can then apply in different reading contexts."
Excellent overview by @CattsHugh.

When our #KnowledgeMatters Tour visited @SalemSchoolsk12, we heard about the district’s shift from Teachers College Reading Workshop to stronger curriculum.
Teachers @staceyvail523, Erica Cabral, and Samantha Lear shared their experiences.

These Boston teachers really get the power of a curriculum that connects ALL aspects of literacy so kids are listening, speaking, reading, and WRITING about the same topic--instead of, e.g., a separate writing curriculum.
Highly recommend this whole thread!

Tiana Wallace says that before, “everything was bucketed.”
“In writers workshop, you might be focused on animals. In read aloud, you might be focused on family.”
@ELeducation, which is designed for deep study in content areas, is supporting stronger vocab acquisition for Ss.

Important insights from teachers about the shortcomings of balanced literacy curriculum Fountas & Pinnell… and the relative benefits of knowledge-building curriculum.

Many of us share this story:
Our data told us that we had to make a change. Especially when we looked at it carefully.
As @mcglynn3 reminded folks in our webinar on shifting from #TCRWP, “Always disaggregate your data.”

“Seven years into our existence as a school, and our data had flatlined,” after marginal gains when they opened.
“We’re exiting kids at best with 50% on grade level. Our MCAS results – not great.”
Their data also fueled the change.
