I'm very proud to share a new, first-of-its-kind analysis and data tool from my team at @educationwork.newamerica.org.
Redrawing the Lines is a first-ever look at how, if states draw school district borders with equity as the goal, they can HUGELY reduce funding inequality and segregation. #edusky

Redistricting School Systems Can Increase Funding Fairness and Decrease Segregation

A new report and interactive data tool show how specific redistricting choices can create fairer school systems for our children.

I just dropped these 5 free early-phonics workbooks. They cover basic consonant sounds and soft vowel sounds. They also include 25 decodable texts.

And how does that prove whole language works?

natejoseph.bsky.social @natejoseph.bsky.social · 24d

Her wrong interpretation of NAEP scores as a journalist, does not disprove the research done for decades showing Whole Language does not work.

That’s incredibly kind of you to say! I’m not sure I meet that standard though. But I’m honoured that you think so highly of me.

I have been a public opponent to charter schools and private schools for almost a decade.

I am not paid by the Waltons.

natejoseph.bsky.social @natejoseph.bsky.social · 26d

So you admit that there is a mountain of research against you. But you slander my paper without reading it. What an open minded and nuanced position.

natejoseph.bsky.social @natejoseph.bsky.social · 26d

Straw man. You have no nuance that you have suggested.

You cited a blog and a newspaper article. The England study is not an RCT or a meta. It’s correlational, not causative data. Scientific studies have consistently shown the same thing for decades. (NRP, 2000); (Camilli, 2003); (Steubings, 2008); (Torgerson; 2019). All found SP outperformed WL.

Great. Where’s your academic citation.

1

natejoseph.bsky.social @natejoseph.bsky.social · 26d

The reading wars debate is not over whether we have a reading crisis, it’s on WL or SP. If you say there is no science of reading, the logical conclusion is that you believe WL is superior to SP.

Please show me your peer reviewed citation to suggest Whole Language is better than Systematic Phonics.

And a blog post.

Ah great yes. A newspaper article. Please show me your peer reviewed study suggesting that Whole Language is better.

1

natejoseph.bsky.social @natejoseph.bsky.social · 27d

Science is a hoax? Are you suggesting that the decades of reading research suggesting systematic phonics is superior to whole language was all faked? You must have some really impressive citations to back this up?
