    This school has put together a wide variety of websites and activities for practicing literacy skills. Some of these are more suited to struggling students. Many will work great on interactive whiteboards.

  • Rafe Esquith, the extraordinary Los Angeles teacher (you can see an interview I did with him last year here) has been suspended from the classroom, allegedly because he recited a Mark Twain quotation to his class.

  • 14 things that are obsolete in 21st century schools
  • 1. Computer Rooms

      True but classroom teachers should not be deprived of this special when they have a free period for planning, PD, contacting parents. COWS with a specials tchr to reinforce classroom instruction + classroom integration might work better.
  • 2. Isolated classrooms

      Parents are not welcome in child's school much less classroom for 'security' reasons. This must be dealt with 1st.

      My biggest beef - IT ppl with no educational degrees making decisions on which software teachers will use.
  • 4. Banning phones and tablets
    • Lisa Durff
      Lisa Durff on 02 Jan 17
       
      These are routinely banned by administrations - they have not seen the every student response without district paying one red cent - that might change minds.
  • 3. Schools that don’t have WiFi
    • Lisa Durff
      Lisa Durff on 02 Jan 17
       
      PUBLIC WiFi - not just teacher connections but ALL devices should be able to go online.
  • 7. Schools that don’t have Facebook or Twitter

      Love communicating with grandson's superintendent on Twitter - I know before the 'official' notification sources when school's are closed. Wish principal and teacher had Twitter too OR let me into the school's Edmodo.
  • 8. Unhealthy cafeteria food

      Many schools are doing much better - at least in MD.
  • 13. One-Professional development-workshop-fits-all
  • 9. Starting school at 8 o’clock for teenagers
  • Research has shown over and over again that teenagers do better and feel better in schools that start later.
  • 10. Buying poster-, website- and pamphlet design for the school
  • 11. Traditional libraries
  • Libraries that only contain books and chess tables are obsolete.

      I have a beef with this blanket statement. Libraries with books ARE invaluable for primary students. Once they are hooked on reading, then introduce digital reading. Libraries could have free hot beverages though....
  • 12. All students get the same
  • 6. Teachers that don’t share what they do
    • Lisa Durff

      Collaborative PD and PLN's are the wave of the future.
  • 14. Standardized tests to measure the quality of education
