I just discovered your channel and I'm loving your "research on the research" videos. Thank you! My 5th grader and I did homeschooling last year during the pandemic and I discovered at that time that she seemed to have some fundamental gaps: spelling being the most obvious. Your videos on the effectiveness of direct instruction of spelling and the positive correlation with reading comprehension encouraged me to continue individualized spelling at home, even though she returned to public school in the fall. This new video on number lines and numeral comparisons has my brain working on how to use those methods to "back fill" some of her math gaps: mostly time and fractions. Thanks again for investing the time to carefully read instruction research and create videos that make that material digestible!
Thank you for your very kind words! I’m glad you are enjoying these videos! It can be so hard to know which “curriculum” materials to choose so hopefully knowing a bit about the research can help! Thank you for supporting my channel!
