Spending this day with my amazing Okapi Publishing colleagues talking about what matters most ~ the kids!!! Our kids need to see themselves represented in print. #culturalrelevancematters Pat Eastman Dan Farley Jeff Reynolds @lexamitoni Bill Eastman Elette Meaux Grace Ed Resources

Congratulations to #balancedlit2019 presenter Vivian Pratts !

The Okapi shared reading big books are beautiful, magic pens...well magic, and the PD support Debra Crouch provides the perfect recipe!

We had a blast trying to watch #SolarEclipse from our hq in Temecula!

LITERACY ALERT! If you read just 1 article on literacy in next month, make it “Teaching Decisions That Bring The Conditions of Learning to Life” by Debra Crouch & Brian Cambourne via Dr. Mary Howard It will change, stabilize &/or affirm your view of literacy learning. #litessentials x.com/DrMaryHoward/s…

Debra Crouch and Maria Nichols working with educators from the Delaware County (PA) Intermediate Unit on "Teaching the Thinkers of Tomorrow (and Today)!" #alwayslearning #newlearning

If we want kids to BE readers we can simply fill our day w/ explicit instruction (as some would like you do). If we want kids to BECOME readers then we must hold tight to increasing volume & choice thru independent reading and embed support w/in those experiences. Your choice!

As important as “data” is, we cannot lose the child beneath the spreadsheet. We must stop talking numbers and start talking bout what we know about kids from the heart. No spreadsheet will EVER tell you who they are as learners! #DailyCAFE #G2Great
