WE MOVE TOGETHER is a “mirror & window” (seeing ourselves vs. seeing others) book I continue to use when speaking to students about disability. It’s a diverse picture book which both reflects students identities & exposes them to new identities & perspectives. @tdsb @TDSB_OTPT
Orange book cover of we move together. Pictured on the cover are diverse people, including a person in a wheelchair and a person carrying a cane.

Far too many popular strategies for teaching reading are not actually supported by research. We sifted through to find the ones that are most effective.

Which Reading Strategies to Try, and Which to Ditch

Research shows that some popular activities for reading instruction don't actually result in more fluent readers—so we rounded up the most classroom-worthy ones.

Happy Earth Day 2023 to all life on planet Earth. A reminder that the first Earth Day was created in 1970, while we were going to the Moon. And when we arrived, we looked back over our shoulders, and discovered Earth for the first time.
