A study is making the rounds that details a few of the best ways to improve student achievement. It also touches on the least useful methods.
Beth Dichter's insight:
How can we best improve student achievement? This infographic states that it has looked at "over 50,000 studies including over 240 million students!" The work was done by one small organization and aside from the infographic it is difficult to determine the studies used. However the findings are worth looking at. The seven areas that are most beneficial are shown in the infographic above (and listed below). Click through to see the infographic and learn more. * Self reported grades/student expectations * Teacher credibility * Feedback * Phonics instruction * Classroom management * Parental involvement * Cooperative learning

My classroom theme is always "monsters," so I think thi a cute game that could be used during my students' computer time to bolster phonics skills.

I like that this resource includes consonant clusters and blends - students need a lot of practise with this when they are learning to read.
