@vicki.ferrari: The conversation we have as leaders shapes the work we prioritize. If our first question is always, “What program should we buy next?” We’ll spend our energy searching for better materials. But if our first question is, “How do we strengthen Tier 1 instruction?” Everything changes. We begin investing in what has the greatest impact: • Building teacher expertise • Strengthening instructional coaching • Creating time for collaborative planning • Using data to improve instruction—not just report it • Supporting continuous growth in every classroom Programs are important. But they are only one component of a strong literacy system. The schools that achieve lasting reading success understand that the greatest return on investment isn’t another purchase. It’s building the instructional capacity of the educators who teach every child, every day. That’s how systems improve. One classroom at a time. - Leading Literacy with Vicki 👊🏻📚🎤 #Tier1Instruction #EquityInEducation #Tier1Instruction #MTSS
Sounds good, but: what theories and techniques do they use? The vast majority of them will only have used packaged materials. Many many others will revert to TPT. Many will say “it’s just good teaching”. All of these will fail. Why? Because they always have. People have to be extremely open minded and do the work to learn how ELA pedagogy truly works. Very few will do it.

The problem is teachers think they’re experts on their first day in the classroom and can’t be told otherwise.
