Received “Primary Reading Simplified” today by @suchmo83.bsky.social! At first glance- it’s a practical, teacher-friendly resource! I appreciate the PD questions at the end of each chapter—perfect for PLCs and team collaboration. Excited to dive deeper! #edusky
If you see this, quote with a flower. My final classroom as a teacher, we created a special flower garden to honor the memory of a classmate who tragically passed. Each student planted a flower, creating a beautiful space to remember and celebrate his life. Then, we filled the sky with rainbows.

If you are able to sign up for this webinar- it will be well worth the time!
Christopher Such@suchmo83.bsky.social · 2y agoFirst, if you’d like to learn more about the approach to reading lessons at the heart of Primary Reading Simplified, @FFTEdu are hosting two *free* webinars this week in which I will talk about exactly this: Tue 28 Jan - 15:45 - fftedu.org/3E82Lw1 Wed 29 Jan - 09:00 - fftedu.org/4au7y76 >>
Teaching in rural Alaska means bush planes and regular flights to reach “the city,” but bad weather couldn’t stop this inspiring teacher from presenting at the state RTI conference! A true leader, sharing impactful strategies for structured literacy in multigrade classrooms! #edusky #alaska

Saw Mufasa today…the dedication at the beginning to James Earl Jones pulled this 90s kid heart strings!
Was browsing Amazon and found a preorder for Julia Lindsey’s next book (which I didn’t even know was coming out so what a surprise!). Reading Above the Fray is an excellent resource for teachers- I anticipate this will be as well! It’ll be safe in my cart for 6 months :)
Chat GPT has revived a “Wild West” of politics- Alaska is a prime example. With a governor making “vampire duck” AI illustrations in official letters and a “Ed Commissioner” citing fake ChatGPT research for agendas she is pushing…let’s have some ground rules? 1. Verify what ChatGPT spits out.

I’ve had the privilege to serve under great leaders and learned from great leader mentors. I’ve had to work “with” terrible leaders with an immeasurable lack of integrity and accountability. When I mentor future leaders- Day 1- I introduce these two truths and encourage them to model it everyday.
I had this book several years ago and had gifted it to a new teacher I was mentoring. It showed up as a purchasing suggestion in my Amazon- it was like seeing an old friend again! Direct instruction in reading…2006 publication still relevant.
I’m about to commit teacher blasphemy: Amazon Basics felt-tip pens are significantly better than Flair pens. There, I said it. Let the great pen debate begin.
Here is a teacher project to support- thank you!!
@alimomali.bsky.social · 2y ago9 days left before everything raised expires! 🚨 Do you remember school spirit wear days? This project provides a shirt students can wear and makes everyone feel included! Thanks for supporting my students. #donorschoose #allarewelcome www.donorschoose.org/project/empo...
I may be late to the game- but I just watched Out of My Mind—an excellent story about inclusion, advocacy, and the importance of using people-first language. While Disney added its dramatic flair, the heart of the message shines through. #inclusion, #cerebralpalsy
