1623704774104195074 | If you didnât watch the 11hs of the @NYSenate education budget hearing yesterday, our elected officials spent more time discussing electric buses than literacy.

1626607145516142592 | @pastors4txkids @GregAbbott_TX What are the @NAEP_NCES scores for Texas public schools in reading and math? Serious question. Are they graduating students who can not read proficiently? (Hint, the answer is yes). @RightToReadFilm | 2 |

1626614178516549632 | @kennymxu Reading to kids is not sufficient to teach all kids to read. This is true. Early Childhood literacy depends on teachers using explicit instruction. Look up @NAEP_NCES reading scores by year. @RightToReadFilm | 5 |
1624496297234292745 | đą @SecCardona â do you NOT know that childrenâs behavior is inextricably linked to their level of reading, and, per @NAEP_NCES data, thereâs a #literacycrisis that youâre ignoring. #IDEAhearings @EdWorkforceCmte @AaronPBean @GOPoversight @GOPMajorityWhip @SpeakerMcCarthy 1/ https://t.co/WJpcmevWf3 | 4 |

1626208927775064064 | @OhioPEP @1in5advocacy @NAEP_NCES @IDACentralOhio @IDA_NorthernOH @RightToReadFilm @ReadOrPrison @KJWinEducation @ehanford So your answer is let each teacher decide what approach he/she is comfortable with and let the chips fall. Parents are no longer willing to sit back and keep their child in failing schools. | 3 |
