🚨The MA House is taking up a bold literacy bill this week! With only 40% of 4th graders reading proficiently, this bill ensures access to evidence-based instruction for all. Grateful to House leaders + proud to stand with #MassReads to get it passed!

Friends,

May we never forget that while negotiations,statements, addresses and the rest of the (undoubtedly important) diplomacy track are happening,exhausted #Ukrainian men &women in military uniform are holding back evil on the frontlines.

Without them,there would be no diplomacy track at all.

Diversity is a fact: All kinds of people exist.

Equity is a goal: All kinds of people deserve a chance at success.

Inclusion is how we get to equity. By including them, they can achieve success.

It's that simple.

Forever grateful for my time working and learning from Maryanne Wolf!
I've noticed that people have shorter attention spans when it comes to reading 😢. I noticed it in myself during pandemic, realized that doom-scrolling had its effect.

I started purposely retraining my brain after hearing this interview w/Maryanne Wolf. Gift article:

Opinion | This Is Your Brain on ‘Deep Reading.’ It’s Pretty Magnificent. (Published 2022)
The literacy scholar Maryanne Wolf maps out the ways “deep reading” nourishes our capacity for attention, empathy and insight.
