Took the #AlbertBridgeSchool crew to the @WSESU #spellingbee today. While we didn’t “win” this is what we walked away with-Ss told me we tripled our total score from last year which is a pretty great reflection. Congrats @WSESUWSD on the victory.

Most impactful and innovative #middleschool library I’ve seen is @RMSHanover with @rmslibrarian at the helm.

Innovation requires a culture that supports experimentation and learning. To do that, organizations need to shift the culture to be more supportive of experimenting and, in particular, failing. ow.ly/byGG50wzYTK

When we read to our children, they are doing more work than meets the eye. "It's that muscle they're developing bringing the images to life in their minds." @anya1anya ow.ly/XUCg50wzY3S

What's Going On In Your Child's Brain When You Read Them A Story? | KQED

There are many ways young children encounter stories. A new study finds a "Goldilocks effect," where a cartoon may be "too hot" and audiobooks "too cold" for learning readers.

VT has started testing child care facilities & schools for lead in drinking water, per a law passed earlier this year. Hundreds left to go, but results in for 300 child cares & 5 schools. Look them up with this great dashboard: anrweb.vt.gov/DEC/leadinscho…. #vted
