“I’m going to tell you a story…” Emily Hanford sharing how teaching kids to read went wrong. Science of Teaching & Learning Australia

A wonderful line-up for ‘The Why, What and How of Evidenced-Based Reading Instruction’ at Science of Teaching & Learning Australia Edith Cowan University (ECU) - I’m looking forward to learning a lot today. Dr Lorraine Hammond AM welcoming a full house to this amazing event.

Reading is a transformative experience but it’s a biologically unnatural experience. Kids need to be explicitly taught to read…Tony Buti Science of Teaching & Learning Australia

I ‘m looking forward to tomorrow’s Science of Teaching & Learning Australia reading seminar at Edith Cowan University (ECU)… Having 11 staff members from Team Dayton Primary School attend is awesome.

Hopefully Ray Boyd and my tweets sharing our learnings from the sessions don’t get the same level of attack as our last PL there!

I do enjoy a library lunch duty - it was lots of fun working on the Where’s Wally jigsaw 🧩 with our Dayton Primary School students…

I’m all about the sparkles! ✨
If what you are currently doing isn’t making you sparkle, don’t settle. The sparkles ✨ are out there… somewhere… waiting for you. ✨

Sat to relax and enjoy my book and a drink but now to find a relief teacher instead… Not having much luck with that lately. 😔
