Surprising Tips That Help Kids Learn to Read - 18 views

  •  
    "Almost every adult who cares for young children knows that sharing books with them is an important way to promote their reading skills.

6 Tech Skills Expected of Incoming HS Freshmen - 39 views

  •  
    Here is my very modest proposal: we pick the top "ICT skills" that classroom teachers should be able to expect of all students and design short, authentic tasks that can be easily assessed. If each core classroom teacher gives and evaluates one skill at the beginning of the freshman year, a profile of every student can be compiled and remediation can be provided through classes taught by the librarian.

What Kids Are Reading In School and Out - 16 views

  •  
    "Walk into any bookstore or library, and you'll find shelves and shelves of hugely popular novels and book series for kids. But research shows that as young readers get older, they are not moving to more complex books. High-schoolers are reading books written for younger kids, and teachers aren't assigning difficult classics as much as they once did."
