So grateful for an unexpected blessing with the opportunity to join the ELD team and Van Hoosen Middle School. Met a few families and students today...what a great new beginning.

Our first graders in Mrs. Ureel’s class are practicing sound production and phonics with mirrors to watch the shape their mouths make! #RCSPride

Our community is heartbroken over the violence at the Brooklands Plaza Splash Pad. Our thoughts remain with those who may be impacted. Professional RCS support services are available from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., June 17-18, at Reuther Middle School or by phone at 248-726-4700.

So many of my colleagues have left the profession between years 3 and 8. So far, none have returned to teaching. Greener grass is real sometimes.
After a couple of years in the classroom, research shows that many teachers’ morale slumps for a few years before rebounding later in their careers. Find out what may contribute to this trend. #EWArchive edw.link/ebn

Be brave friends. Stand up for the world you believe in - for the vision of readers with choice and freedom and the integral role of libraries in our society. You matter. We matter. And we are always stronger together.

A reminder to myself as a district searches for a swap. Listen to teachers & listen to students. Qualitative data is data.

Twenty-seven years in elementary education and more than 13 curricular resources/methodologies for reading... I do believe all children can learn to read. If we could focus more on pedagogy and a bit less on resource roulette, I think we'd increase success.
I wonder what I've left out as I recap all of the curriculum materials and methodologies I've been asked to use to teach reading... this one was 1st.
