How learning happens. My biggest takeaway is just because you’re engaged doesn’t mean you’re learning anything. Schools and teachers often mistake engagement for learning.

I truly ❤️ these word webs. While it shouldn't have surprised me but anniversary did. Follow Sounds & Syllables and you might learn something every Monday.

I'm so happy this is the bestselling Canadian Kids book nationwide. As an OG tutor, I give this book to my students for Christmas. They ❤️ this book and end up buying the series. David A. Robertson

I love how counterintuitive this is. We need to forget to learn through retrieval practice. This is why spaced retrieval practice is so important. Thank you for sharing Carl Hendrick

Novices are not little experts. To expect them to solve a problem without the right tools/knowledge only causes frustration. Learn about How Learning Happens by following Nidhi Sachdeva, PhD Jim Hewitt Carl Hendrick Paul A. Kirschner

I'm not sure what the point of The OHRC #RightToRead inquiry was about if Toronto District School Board is recruiting interventionists with Reading Recovery experience. It is not explicit enough to support at risk students. This is to say the least disappointing.

I have this amazing book edited by Nancy Young Ed.D. & Jan Hasbrouck, Ph.D. I love that it covers the major topics in reading and writing written by subject experts. Each chapter has key points. It is very clearly and well laid out. A DEFINITE must have.
