The students in our graduate certificate in structured literacy had to read a classic paper and create an infographic that they could share with teaching partners. Here's one based on David Share's self-teaching hypothesis. Great work, Ariana!

Duck tollers! Top dogs! Read about their interesting history in this thread and meet these two ambassadors: Willy and Ruby!
It's time to highlight a dog that hails from Canada.
No, it's not the Newfoundland, The Lab, or the Canadian Inuit Dog.
It's known lovingly as The Little River Duck Dog.
This thread features the adorable Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.

The semester is over and I’m now a learner not a teacher - it seems simple but it is harder for me to learn to turn/move in the right direction at the right time than it is for Willie.

I don’t know of any but it’s been awhile since I looked. We used English measures of PA to screen for risk in FI kiddos in K because they were just starting French.
