I remember a teacher telling me: “When you’re surrounded by superstars… it makes you want to be better than you are.” That’s the power of collaboration -- the power of positive peer pressure. The best teachers don’t just inspire their students; they inspire their colleagues.

Children will rise to the expectations we set. Just as explicit instruction should not be negotiable when teaching novice learners, there should be a non-negotiable expectation that all students display behaviors that support learning. When we don't, it is a clear sign that we

Mary M. Kennedy reviewed 28 studies on teacher professional development to find out what actually works. She discovered that the best programs help teachers think strategically or discover insights on their own, rather than just giving them step-by-step instructions to follow.

I always wanted to improve my science vocabulary instruction but most of my instructional strategies focused on Tier 3 words such as mitochondria and photosynthesis. It did not focus on Tier 2 words that actually explain the why and how behind these terms.🧵⬇️

I’ve finally launched my Substack with a piece that reflects a concern I’m no longer willing to soften. Building Sinking Classrooms takes a hard look at Building Thinking Classrooms and the widening gap between instructional popularity and instructional evidence. I believe this

When I got my masters at a large state university I tutored for the football team. They assigned me a player who needed “a little more help”... I asked him to write a paragraph about himself. Not a single correct & complete sentence. He read at the 3rd grade level. The worst
