EFL / ESL Teaching Tip: Collocations
Collocates are words that occur near a given word (the node word), and they can provide very useful insight into the meaning and usage of the words by which they occur.
North West Ordinance 1787 - The seperation of church and state was not the original intent
"Religion, morality, and knowledge, being necessary to good
government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of
education shall forever be encouraged." - Article 3 of the Northwest Ordinance
In our opinion, at Shackles Off Learning, the separation of church and state was the worst thing that happened to education. Here is a video explaining our core beliefs.

Phonics vs. Whole Word
Although I believe that sight words are a good start for understanding vocabulary words that may show up in a higher frequency, I do not agree with only teaching sight words. In my opinion, it is the worst way to teach a child to read. Phonics are so much better. This video will show you why.
My next series of blog posts will focus on learning phonics. As a teacher, I can attest to the fact that students who know, understand, and apply phonics are my strongest readers.
