Hello everyone! Last week, we spoke to the wonderful Chris Pombonyo about the upcoming Get Your Teach On national conference in Dallas, Texas and what their focus would be in their sessions.

This week, we expand upon that, plus dive into the wonderful world of data in schools! If you fear data, hate it, or just want a positive look at powerful tools for your instructional decisions, this episode is the one for you!

From budgets and banking to credit and savings, you’ll find a financial literacy topic that’s right for your classroom.

This episode is sponsored by Heinemann—the leading publisher of professional books and resources for educators—and brand-new edition of When Kids Can’t Read—What Teachers Can Do by Kylene Beers.

Reading matters because it changes us: the way we think, the way we see the world, and the way we process information.

But when kids don’t read, when they can’t read, they miss out on lots of learning and growth.

That’s why this book is such a valuable addition to any teacher’s toolkit. 

The new edition of When Kids Can’t Read—What Teachers Can Do is extensively rewritten and filled with scaffolds and strategies that support different ways to help students become more skilled, engaged, and curious readers.
