3 members of the Teach Like a Champion team explain why students need to read whole books—even when it’s hard: edut.to/3IWhzjS

#EduSky #literacy

“We believe that even—perhaps especially—in a digital age, books create a critical experience that can be created through no other means. Ensuring that students read books—excellent books, whole books, together in groups, often aloud to maximize the sense of connection they create—will maximize the chances that they become better readers, more knowledgeable students, and that they come to love and value reading.” —Doug Lemov, Colleen Driggs, & Erica Woolway, of Teach Like a Champion

“Peer coaching encourages a more empathetic and responsive leadership style, and serves as a powerful antidote to the perception that the further leaders move away from the classroom, the more disconnected they become,” Rachel Menta writes in her first article for Edutopia.

Administrators get a lot of benefit from taking time to reflect together, exchange strategies, and support one another.

"Fictional comic supervillain Lex Luther once became President and was given a $200 million dollar luxury jet as a bribe. In the story, he was arrested by Metropolis police and imprisoned for 25 years. American justice is the real fiction."
