    So glad to see this on Facebook today. I’ll order your book, and will field test it in one of my geaduate reading courses (Sepcialized Diagnosis). I think it might make a good fit as one of our texts.
    The best of luck Nancy. I was looking a follow button on your blog. If I miss it please point it out for me, and if you don’t have one, think about it. What I like about your blog is it is simple to navigate, and
    Thank you for rejecting silence and apathy,
    Jesse

    Add me too! How can I follow you? I am a special educator also currently not teaching. I am trying to get more parents involved and informed about what is going on in education/testing today. This page is going to be a big help 🙂

    I can’t believe I just now found this blog! You have a treasure trove of wisdom here, and I just found out how I’m going to procrastinate on everything else. 😉
    Keep up the great work!

    Nancy, I like the way you think. As a previous elementary educator of 35 years and now a school board member, I’m concerned about the universal screeners that the state of TN has required our districts to purchase. They are expensive and give teachers little help in assessing reading behaviors especially with a component called, nonsense words! In this process students who need the most support are process monitored to death and then get a steady diet of skill (kill) and drill! I would love to hear your thinking on this topic.

    ATTENTION NORTHERN CALIFORNIANS!! (and others) PLEASE SHARE A LOT: Marc Berman (D-Palo Alto), a well-funded candidate for State Assembly, is poised to become the Democratic candidate after Primary Day. This is bad news for our schools, as he is an agent of G.E.R.M.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FXksdNRgAg

Will parents demand real teachers or buy the online sales pitches? @NancyEBailey1 nails it. https://twitter.com/NEPCtweet/status/1542923534736838656

Betsy DeVos’ American Federation for Children (AFC) is *already* using predatory tactics to advertise vouchers in AZ even before Gov. Ducey signs #HB2853 (universal vouchers) into law.

What they fail to mention is that voucher schools can legally discriminate against kids 😡

A new review of research confirms multiple benefits of "looping" - that is, having a teacher stay with a class of students for more than one year: https://www.edworkingpapers.com/ai22-590
