Too many popular strategies for teaching reading aren’t actually supported by research. We sifted through to find the ones that are most effective! 🔍

Researchers at MIT have questioned whether SMART goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound) actually work. They suggest we might get better outcomes if we make our goals FAST (frequently discussed, ambitious, specific and transparent) not SMART.

As someone who spent a decade teaching and a decade as an administrator, I found the suggestions and tone of this piece reasonable and respectful of both teachers and leaders. edutopia.org/article/leader… via Paige Tutt edutopia

Thanks Dan Meyer for reminding me about how the teacher's words "Let's Try It" shift the learning contract with students and teachers. Powerful mindset shift I'll use in my co-teaching and mentorship. #NCTMCHI24 #mtbos

I've learned so much from edutopia articles in my career as an educator. I wanted to express my gratitude in person. Thank you for making professional development accessible for all teachers! #NCTMCHI24

Thanks for attending the session! Can't wait to see how these examples inspire your teachers to develop their own #MathematicalModeling inquiries. And the #CoffeeCrisp snack was appreciated! #OCanada #mtbos #iteachmath #NCTMCHI24
