Enjoying reading @SarahAsome 's interview with Learning Disabilities Australia about some of the changes and advancements to literacy instruction at @BentleighWest under Principal @StevenCapp (here: ldaustralia.org/client/documen…). Here's the professional reading diet... (start thread)
Which then impacted practice like this..
and this...
and this (Nice to meet you Gentle Cindy!)
Ooh, a familiar character appears (@DrLSHammond)
And a whole heap of links to assessment resources are included in this article also. A very worthwhile read for anyone keen to hear more about a highly structured and effective approach to teaching reading. (end thread)

Here are some of the things that I’ve learnt about mathematical problem solving over the past few years: 1. Fluency in facts, procedures & concepts act as a foundation for problem solving,
2. One main point of consistently asking students the same questions, in order to prompt their thinking, is that they then internalise these these questions and they become part of the students’ natural metacognitive processes whilst problem solving.
3. Heuristics like ‘solve a simpler problem first’ describe well what an expert problem solver does, but give little guidance to a novice.

Just finished, and thoroughly enjoyed, reading the @OracyCambridge paper 'The development of Oracy skills in school-aged learners' by @profneilmercer and @LynDawesMercer (ht @RethinkingJames). It outlines the 'why' of Oracy, breaks down skills, and... languageresearch.cambridge.org/images/Languag…
touches on teaching. It begins with an argument that explicit Oracy instruction provides a crucial 'second chance' for students. And relates the development of speech to the development of thought.
Then breaks Oracy skills down into four categories, as presented in the Cambridge Oracy Skills Framework below. A clearer explication of the skills of Oracy I've not yet seen.

#Australia Calls on #China to Release Detained Writer - It strongly rebuked Beijing on Friday for detaining one of its citizens, a writer who has called for liberalization in China, expressing concern over his welfare and calling for his release. nytimes.com/2019/07/19/wor…
Australia was “deeply disappointed” to learn that Yang Hengjun, a Chinese-born Australian who has been in custody since January, had been placed in criminal detention, Marise Payne, the country’s foreign minister, said in a statement.
“We have asked for clarification regarding the reasons for Dr. Yang’s detention,” she said. “If he is being detained for his political views, then he should be released.”

Nous aurons vécu des audiences d une intensite rare, par la souffrance qui s est exprimee...c est la premiere fois, que j entends le parquet fustiger l attitude de la defense.
Singuliere car les parties civiles ont fait le reproche de ne pas être sur meme banc, mais on ne choisi pas d etre mis en examen. Mais nous sommes au penal pour juger une seule infraction.

Here's a thread about the books I read this year!

#reading #books #libraries #readingrainbow
1. "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House" by Michael Wolff. Yes, I hate-read this book in a matter of days. Problematically, Bannon comes across as an articulate, insightful source and not an arch nationalist parasite. Will Wolff's depiction be hagiography in the future?
2. "The Invention of the White Race, Volume 1: Racial Oppression and Social Control" and "The Invention of the White Race, Volume 2: The Origin of Racial Oppression in Anglo-America" by Theodore Allen. Who knew how important Bacon's Rebellion (1676) was to the history of racism?
