Attention WNY Elementary Principals/Curriculum Leaders: Profs @jzstrong & Blythe Anderson UBuffalo GSE | Education will present on "Tools for Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction" - how to evaluate reading & writing curriculum materials - at Erie 1 BOCES this Monday 6/5! mylearningplan.com/WebReg/Activit…

Congratulations, @jzstrong! So well deserved!!

In JLR's March 2023 issue, Drs. Anderson, Wright, and Wenk Gotwals examine the ways in which teachers use language to promote vocabulary development during science instruction in early-elementary classrooms. Find their article here:  doi.org/10.1177/108629…

Teacher talk characterized by telling rather than inviting student exploration. Missed opportunities to actively engage students. Theme of the day: turn thinking over to the students!

A big ‘thank you’ to @jzstrong and his team for a great presentation to our K-5 faculty and staff on the model for Differentiated Reading Instruction. Working collaboratively with UB on strong literacy practices in our schools. #clarenceproud Lizzie Hetzer Clarence CSD Office of Curriculum and Instruction
