Lit Coach at Woodbury MS & Secondary Lit Spec for SoWashCo. Mama to two sweet girls and married for 10 years. Would love to curl up and tackle my TBR list!
@MitaliPerkins@RedBalloonBooks@FierceReads@bpearlman89 The adults and kids haven’t stopped talking about you! You’ve inspired and gained A LOT of new fans in MN! God speed and safe travels to Chi-town and beyond! Thank you so very much for taking time to be with us this morning!
I love my books-that’s no secret. But I’m now obsessed with my new best friend, @MitaliPerkins, & her new book, FORWARD ME BACK TO YOU. Thanks for visiting @ParkHigh833 today. We all loved you! #somuchlove#isd833
Heard the exquisite Kate DiCamillo tonight, thanks to @RedBalloonBooks. She is really the queen of words; one can savor every sentence she writes and says.
We did Kate DiCamillo’s very first launch party (for BECAUSE OF WINN DIXIE!) and we are so, so thrilled to get to celebrate her for latest, LOUISIANA’S WAY HOME. ❤️
Best practiced in revolutionary PD is the “Science Fair” where teachers share simple three-panel displays that show 1) My challenges: 2) My intervention; 3) My results. Promotes inside-out change.

In this discussion, let’s not forget PD for administrators, board members and other policymakers. 21st century practices won’t be supported by 19th century policies.

Hi Friends - I don’t ask favor very often, but this one is important. Ask your students to write real letters - no texts, no e-mails, to cover the bullet holes at MSD high school. Send them to Ms. Wolk Rogers

When systematic phonics doesn't work, STOP doing it. Instead, engage students in word sorting (a la Words Their Way) so they learn phonics, word patterns, and meanings. It works! @ERobbPrincipal@DrMaryHoward@franmcveigh @jdsniadecki @cvarsalona@TechNinjaTodd @FCMSPrincipal
I love this! I've found the kids getting morning tardy slips are less likely to have a great home life.
Instead of ostracizing them, these slips welcome with open arms! #ditchbook#kidsdeserveit#leadlap#ditchsummit https://t.co/peDegmpVHl
Teachers who teach reading should also teach writing. That allows pairs or groups reading the same text to study it for a technique, convention we’re working on and share. I like having multiple examples of fine literature shared so students see multiple possibilities. #NCTEchat
