Year 7 and Year 8 have started to DEAR - Drop Everything And Read - we want our students to read for pleasure, for mental health and to improve reading ages. 15 minutes, 3 times a week! Mr Ahmad is also listening to students read and asking questions about the book they are reading!

The surge of ai and its ignorance of taste, making things better by adding more, and so on, is correlating with the average lack of consideration for #creation, #art and #artists and global #antiintellectualism ; highlighting global reluctance to partake into any activity requiring to think by oneself. #literacy #criticalthinking #CriticalLiteracy #literacyMatters #ai #artificialintelligence #medialiteracy #populism #facism

I recently read about how over half of the American population is at Level 1 Literacy (Grade 6 or lower). Together with how low the population is in some States, Trump and American political outcomes makes lots of sense in a dark #Absurdist way.š As a retired Canadian teacher (English, Developmental Literacy, Media Literacy, & Special Ed), I am struck with pity, despair, and anger. #America is being barely held together with spit and baling wire. Just how is it still standing? :bd25:

Support The Lucy Project this Give Miami Day
Every child deserves the gift of literacy. The Lucy Project provides free, expert reading support to struggling students, helping them reach grade-level proficiency and unlock brighter futures.
This Give Miami Day, invest in literacy and change livesāone child, one story at a time.
The Lucy Project means so much to me because it empowers children with reading difficulties to overcome challenges and thrive. By providing evidence-based literacy interventions and professional development for teachers, it ensures that every child, regardless of financial background, has the opportunity to succeed. Supporting this mission helps close the literacy gap and opens doors to brighter futures for kids in our community. #TheLucyProject #LiteracyMatters #EmpowerKids

OMG all these years, Iāve seen the word āscatologicalā and have never looked it up until today. My dictionary says scatological = the study of feces (scat). That didnāt make sense to me in the context of the article I was reading, i.e. āher humor is scatologicalā. Her humor is about š©š©?? But thesaurus.com had more modern definitions. Still, Iām chagrined I didnāt know this. #literacyMatters
Scatological = primarily bawdy, coarse, lewd, obscene, or secondarily dirty filthy excremental
Had a great night last night at Butler Creek Elementary Schoolās Literacy Night! It was such a pleasure being their featured guest. #LiteracyMatters #Education #teachers #teaching #childrensbooks
@yo_bj holy sh*t
it won't be the woo-scary technology search engines, police state, or Illuminati that does us in, but our own dogged-ignorant provinciality.

I love hearing from my #Readers. They are the reason I do what I do. #childrensbooks #kidlit #kidsbook #teaching #teachers #education #literacy #literacyMatters
This is why we make our books. These are the readers we want to save from slipping through the cracks. Confidence canāt be measured on a numeric lexiled assessment tool. #childrensbooks #kidlit #fantasybooks #literacy #teachers #education #tesol #specialeducation #kids #kidsbooks #literacyMatters
