I’d like to express our deep appreciation to Carla Soffos & Adria Klein for ensuring that Linda Dorn’s final book became reality. Linda’s contributions to education will always be felt. We will honor Linda's legacy when we do our best work for children every day! #G2Great

A7 I think we’d be amazed by the sheer number of children who end up in interventions who would never have been there if we’d had a strong foundation at tier 1. We can’t have a knee-jerk reaction about sending every child to a tier who doesn’t pass an isolated test

A7: A strong home can't be built on a weak foundation. If our classroom instruction is not supporting our students what chance will the minimal time outside of it will? #G2Great

So agree! A need that can change intervention and move away from programs and quick fixes. Each child’s needs are unique! #g2great

A7 The authors state, “Interventions are designed to supplement (not replace or supplant) high-quality classroom instruction.” This must be a schoolwide priority since ignoring the first line of defense means that we view interventions in isolation. #G2Great

A6 I love every resource in the book, but I think that my favorite is the 50 videos that are so beautifully done. Teachers need these visual learning opportunities and I know that they will use them across the year to engage in collegial dialogue. #G2Great

A5: I like this book for many reasons: differentiated instruction; evidence-based interventions; assessment that is targetted at both individual and the system. All these are done in an environment in which teachers are empowered and have the tools and skills they need. #G2Great

A6 I want to emphasize that the power of these wonderful support features is that they are RESOURCES (vs mandates). Professional learning is bout honoring teachers with ongoing support along with expert coaching collaboration with others. #G2Great

And often we see students gaining confidence and their skills growing through our interactions. #G2Great

a3 #G2Great The CLLN and CIM, along with this new book (all the many that came before it) have helped me become diagnostic in my teaching. Dynamic assessments allow us to see change over time in REAL time with responsive teaching.

Already a great morning of learning with @carla_soffos and our CLLN! Good reminders about the importance of expert teachers over a canned curriculum: “a program doesn’t know what students know”

My brain is being stretched by the CLLN today. @JiannaTaylor I love the work w/ the newest planners and guides that @carla_soffos shared earlier this morning. Sounds like they will be helpful for interventionists teaching GRP, CFGs, etc. I'll be looking closely at the documents!

Dear @educationweek :
If you persist in pushing the "science of reading," you must not prop up your arguments with ***unscientific surveys and anecdotes***.
Meet the standards you expect of others, and do the due diligence, or listen to the profession.

How many good readers know the rules that explain why every /c/ in Pacific Ocean is pronounced differently? If they don't know the rules,how did they learn to pronounce it correctly? Or understand it when they see it in print? (Expl: much of phonics is "acquired," not "learned.")

Research on the distinction between successful teachers wasn’t around the amount of explicit phonics instruction in the early grades but the amount of time they spent coaching kids on how to use phonics on the fly to figure out unknown words.

Anyone who tells you they have "the" answer/key/cure/solution/secret to all students reading at grade level doesn't.
