Report Cards: Parents are in the Dark

“When parents are in the know, they take action.” – Sonya Thomas

 

Time Magazine:

https://time.com/6308834/american-parents-how-their-kids-doing-in-school/

 

Nashville Propel:

Article talks about a white paper released by Nashville Propel in June: Because of positive report cards, 78% of the Nashville parents surveyed believe their kids are reading at grade level. Meanwhile, data reveals that only 28.5% of students across MNPS—and only 19.6% of Black students—are. (MNPS stands for Metro Nashville Public Schools.)

Strict Synthetic Phonics: What Does That Mean?

with Debbie Hepplewhite 

Is reading instruction that focuses exclusively on learning the code in the first weeks of the school year, without any additional activities such as memorization or global recognition of non-decodable words, more effective in acquiring good fluency and comprehension?

Lifting literacy Through Handwriting Instruction with Shawn Datchuk

 

“Handwriting can be an effective way for students to learn important early reading and writing skills. As noted in a recent systematic review, handwriting instruction during kindergarten can improve both writing and reading outcomes, such as knowledge of letter names and sounds, spelling, and word reading (Ray et al., 2022). Indeed, research suggests a close link between writing and reading overall, including a strong relationship between the development of early writing and reading skills, such as spelling and word reading (Kim et al., 2024). In spite of these ties, handwriting is rarely mentioned in the national conversation on how to improve the reading performance of elementary students”

 

Dr. Shawn Datchuk Bio:

https://irrc.education.uiowa.edu/people/shawn-datchuk

 

Shawn Datchuk is the director of the Iowa Reading Research Center and a faculty member in the University of Iowa College of Education. Under his direction, Shawn aims to ensure that the IRRC’s efforts: (a) make it easier for teachers to teach reading and (b) make it easier for students to learn how to read and use reading to learn. He works with IRRC staff and college faculty to achieve these aims by conducting research, providing technical assistance to schools, and translating research findings for teachers and caregivers. As a former K-12 special education teacher, elementary teacher, director of special education, and academic performance director, he believes all students should have access to high-quality literacy instruction. He received his Master of Education and Doctor of Phi

New Research Study on thinkSRSD with Dr. Leslie Laud, Nate Joseph, and Robert Mitchell

Article:
ThinkSRSD A Secondary Analysis Cohort Investigation [Working Paper]
July 2024

Conflict of Interest Statement:
The first and second authors of this manuscript were contracted by ThinkSRSD to independently evaluate the efficacy of ThinkSRSD. Both authors received financial compensation for their work. However, a contract was established between the first author and ThinkSRSD outlining ethical practices, including a commitment to uphold the principles of ethical and open science. This contract mandated that all research outcomes, regardless of results, be shared publicly.

Quote:
“Out of the 97 schools analyzed, every single treatment school, or schools averaged as a group within a district if the full-district took part, outperformed their control cohort.”

Dr.Leslie Laud
Dr. Leslie Laud supports teachers, schools, districts and states nationally with strengthening writing instruction. She has taught in both general and special education, and worked as a principal. She holds a doctorate from Columbia University, where she was mentored by Dr. Judith Birsh in explicit reading instruction, Dr. Lyn Corno in self-regulated learning and Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond in school change. She has served as co-PI and lead PI on federally-funded large research studies of writing instruction, publishes empirical studies in peer-reviewed journals and presents frequently at national conferences.
