Hear @Leah_Carper's story: "Statistically, I'm not supposed to be here.... I showed up to school with an empty belly most days, filthy clothes, no pencils. Never a pencil. I showed up to school carrying grief sometimes and sadness and fear." ednc.org/perspective-toy-lea…

Here’s a useful tip to help students improve their writing. ✍️ 🤩
Ask them to read their work aloud. While it may not feel as natural—or modest—as reading silently, it can help them catch often-overlooked errors, a 2022 study found.
ALT Bar chart titled Read Aloud to Improve Writing. "When students were asked to proofread texts aloud, they found up to 12 percentage points more typos, grammatical mistakes, and errors in word choice, a 2022 study found." The bar chart shows the difference between accuracy during silent and aloud reading: silent, 59%, and aloud, 71%.
