#smallpoems waves lifted through murky haze sounds sifted as time shaves notes sinking afloat simple misery of happiness Metronome just gets louder as the beat is lost night never rising over the horizon sun succumbs lost in a second act
Published another episode of #7MinuteTeachingTip https://jgregorymcverry.com/notes/2019-11-15-2 In this episode I cover the basic research, assumptions, and share a few tips for teaching note taking #literacies #elachat #nctevillage (captions coming for screen reader friends)
I just finished publishing my 2019 Annual Report for @SCSU. Been a great year of trying to model digitally engaged scholarship and encouraging #OpenPedagogy 2019 Annual Report (https://jgregorymcverry.com/notes/2019-11-15-1.php )
@adamprocter My bad https://discursive.adamprocter.co.uk/ I should have just pinged you with a webmnetion rather than on twitter....but had a thought...needs a cool mind mapping/flow chart tool, you are building one...how cool would it be for kids to be pilot testers?

@SoniaCabell @LaurenTTutor718 you are right the research is light "Given the available research, the WWC could not isolate the effects of practices designed to engage students. As a result, there is a minimal level of evidence to support this recommendation. "
@LaurenTTutor718 I cite some of the efficacy research in this theory of change but usually done with older students: https://jgregorymcverry.com/theoryofchange #ILAchat writing research difficult with these studies as you run into single item assessment issues.
@LaurenTTutor718 not saying disadvantaged at all by phonemic awareness, trying to make point our national #CCSS curriculum and focus on defining literacy and how it is taught reflects dominant narrative rather than oral traditions of many students #ILAchat
Write a poem you can use rimes or rhymes any number of times no matter the on set that gets you started just share the journey students need to see you as a writer in their community of authors #ILAchat #smallpoems
One short comings of #CCSS is mess it makes with how we play with words & sounds..scope out literary devices through k-8, the sequence and reasoning makes no sense. Do fiurwtive language in preschool, always encourage kids to manipulate sound #ILAchat
@LaurenTTutor718 My fault I may not have been clear. I am NOT saying teaching phonemic awareness is culturally bias, I am saying the fact that instruction should end in 2nd grade is a reflection of our bias to the dominant narrative. #ILAchat
Yeah i look to spelling in their writing only if I am trying to figure out where I should be putting my phonics teaching. Separate out writing phonics, spelling, and morphology. different goals for different times. #ILAchat
The best classroom management uses pedagogy so you are facilitating learning more than managing a class. Use entrance and exit slips, schedule time to write, use journals, provide blogs. Turn transitions into teaching times #ILAchat
#Hey #EDU307Fall19 #edu307 here is another picture book recommendation: https://twitter.com/DrKennethKunz/status/1195154313473069063 Keep them coming folks.
@aimes0103 I need to share some posts but will have to dig them up. Accessibility tools like screen readers and text to speech just part of my kids every literary workflow. When Ben researches dogs for his podcast he uses everything #ILAchat
The same poetry lesson I open up with in Kindergarten I use in my #HigherEd classrooms, 1:) write with the senses, 2:) describe a picture with two different moods. Storytelling and writing is embodied, use the affordances of your world #ILAchat
@DrKennethKunz I am collecting picture book recommendations for my #edu307Fall19 #edu307 class right now. What are the must-have picture books needed in every elementary and pre-school classroom? #ILAchat
