I saw this shirt today while shopping with my teenagers. If we’re going to say “reading is hot,” I’d love for it to signal more than a catchy slogan: early identification, evidence-based literacy practices, treating reading as an equity issue. #ReadingIsHot

Hello NYC!

Kid 2 went to SixFlags on a field trip and won a small stuffed animal.

Kid3 (11); son of 2 scientists: "Mama, the MCAS we are taking soon will test all the #science we learned in elementary school". Me: "Oh" Kid3: "I think we have a problem. The only things I remember are the tadpole stages and Artemis." Defintely raising a future Nobel Prize winner in this house.

Wherever you are, whatever you celebrate…I hope this puts a smile on your face! From my family to yours! Reflecting on what is really important in life!

Among the frustrating aspects of the funding situation in the U.S. is that the strategic response is to apply for more grants, with the result that the equilibrium success rate is pushed lower (up to a point). Scientists get less while spending more time writing grants rather than doing science.

There are a number of persistent myths about #dyslexia floating around out there.It came to our attention that this week, some of those myths have been given a big megaphone & reached a wide audience. So, we’d like to gently (and a bit nerdily) set the record straight www.gaablab.com/dyslexia-myths

I’m very much looking forward to speak at the 5th #iWORDD conference this October! Please join us! Info below!
