@LynneRDorfman "We want to use formative assessment to breathe life into our reading and writing lessons and across the day, not to replace valuable instruction time with unnecessary assessment time." Well said! Great article!
@PAWLPnews I’ll always appreciate the incredible support you gave me when you were my coach in the institute, Janice. Your gentle and patient manner coupled with your vast experience and knowledge taught me more than you know. Terrific summary of this year’s institute.

@sfrazintcrwp I did not know Kathleen. I never met her. But, I watched many of her workshop training videos. When she died it felt personal because she had become an important mentor, someone whose style and expertise I brought with me into my workshop. Thank you for this thread.
Finally getting back to my blog and a little Slice of Life-ing! I can't say enough about @amylvpoemfarm resources and the writing joy it's bringing to me and my students. https://t.co/OkULK1noq6
@amylvpoemfarm What an absolutely precious picture I have in my head right now of you reading this story to your daughter. This will always stay with me. You are a kindred spirit for sure. Thank you for all you are doing to make the world a better place!
