Great day with my English 3 class exploring the theme of identity as we study inspiring individuals! Drawing conclusions, supporting our claims with evidence, and acquiring language. These juniors are inspiring!!! These powerful bilingual students are off to a great start!

On this day,80 years ago,my grandfather,Gunther Wenze,5th Artillery,1st Infantry & 1000s of soldiers embarked upon the invasion of Normandy,to defeat the Nazis & free Europe from Fascism. He inspires my sense of service to others and to fight for what's right in this world.

Loving the titles my bilingual scholars checked out for our unit on biography, autobiography, and memoir! I can't wait to hear about what they discover!
Great book study focused on literacy! Allington reminding us: "students need a high volume of books that they can read with fluency, accuracy, and comprehension to grow."
In our classrooms, this is what we strive for everyday: engaged readers who see literacy as an essential part of their lives. Love the work that @TWULitandLearn do everyday!
“The engaged reader is motivated, choosing to read for a variety of purposes, such a s gaining new knowledge, escaping into the literacy world of the text, and learning how to perform a task.” -- Gambrell, 1996 #TWULitandLearn#ReaderResponse Contributed by Rachel Castro
