Happy New Year from Best Practices Weekly! Start your year off right with some great professional resources. *Volume 1, Edition 42 – How to Best Help Struggling Readers "Teachers use a variety of methods to help struggling readers, but which are the most effective? In an article for Better: Evidence-Based Education, researcher Robert Slavin synthesizes results from twenty years' worth of studies on struggling readers to identify the most impactful interventions." *Volume 1, Edition 43 – Self-Regulation as a Key to Writing "Beyond simply knowing how to write, how much do students need to be able to monitor their goals and use of effective writing process? In an article for the Journal of Educational Psychology, a pair of German researchers confirm previous findings that self-regulation has a major impact on students' writing skill and discuss why that might be." *Volume 1, Edition 44 – Organizing Class Discussions with Talk Frames "Class discussions are a major part of most classrooms, but there can be a disconnect from the discussion to the individual response portion of the lesson. In an article for Teaching Children Mathematics, a teacher and a University of Connecticut professor discuss a tool for organizing class discussions, using a symmetry lesson as an example." Hope your new year is off to a great start! -Elliot Haspel ehaspel@edsuccess.org www.bestpracticesweekly.com
