When it comes to learning about words, “The more *we* know…the more prepared we are to best support the success of ALL students.” ~ Pam Koutrakos @Lesley_CRRLC #Lesley_CRRLC

Inquiry is prepared and intentional. It is done in conjunction with explicit teaching. It is that partnership that gets kids excited about words. @pamkou #Lesley_CRRLC #wordstudy

"Inquiry-fueled questions encourage learners to explore sounds, letters, names, and resource tools." ~Pam Koutrakos @Lesley_CRRLC #Lesley_CRRLC

Make kids co-conspirators of their learning rather than passive recipients. Pam Koutrakos #Lesley_CRRLC #education

"We want to bring word awareness to everything we do. What is taught in isolation, stays in isolation." Pam Koutrakos @Lesley_CRRLC #Lesley_CRRLC

Pam Koutrakos discusses how to build a more inclusive classroom library and instructional practice by curating multipurpose text sets. This prepares us for student-centered learning experiences across the literacy block. #CorwinTalks corwin-connect.com/2022/09/upgrad…

The research is clear: End of unit tests are far less effective than ongoing, shorter checks for learning. The best strategy is ~2 x's a week where learners seek to "best themselves" and watch their own improvement grow over time. #howtolearn #patternseeker
