We filled out Amazon carts and were inspired by @CarolJago to point the finger back at ourselves to reflect on our literacy practices. Today we write remembering carol saying “I am a better teacher because of writing about my practice” #writecenterlive
Teachers need a community. The @writingproject has had a huge impact on me and @CarolJago perfectly summed it up today when she asked, "Could there be a better family of professionals, all of whom are willing to accept...this is unperfectable?" @WRITE_Center #writecenterlive @CWP
Thank you @CarolJago ! Your thoughtful and passionate love for teaching our students well is an inspiration for all educators! And not to mention your amazing wealth of book recommendations! 📚💕🎉 #reading #WRITECenterLive @ELA_capo @WRITE_Center
I do think there is a danger of teaching strategy to the point that you never let the students loose to use them, but still believe in making the invisible visible to both proficient and struggling readers. #SCWriP #writecenterlive #CWP
Decline by 9: students drop off reading for pleasure by 9. Scholastic 2019 survey, "Finding Their Story." #writecenterlive @WriteCenter @CarolJago
When teaching poetry ask, "What do you think this poem wants us to know?" (Credited to another amazing educator). @CarolJago #writecenterlive #zotzot

Need to figure out a way to slow them down and think about their reading, encouraging comprehension checks along the way. Digital native does not necessarily mean digital competence. #explicitinstruction #21stcenturyskills
“If we want students to reach for the stars, we have to get them to look up from their phones.” 👏👏👏 @CarolJago @WRITE_Center #writecenterlive #smwp19

"I've never taught a strong writer who wasn't a reader." -@CarolJago So true and an important point @KellyGToGo also emphasized last week. I couldn't agree more! https://t.co/BgZa6gjxtT … @WRITE_Center #writecenterlive @CWP @writingproject

The most important thing we need to do to improve reading and writing literacy is to increase the volume of both. Thank you @KellyGToGo for such an impactful experience #uciadvancedinstitute #WRITECenterLive
You shouldn't grade the journey, you should grade the finish line. Kids who learn along the way should get credit for where they end up. #writecenterlive Grading can pit you as oppositional to the writer. At least ramp up points to credit finish line.
Hello London! Thanks for joining us :)

Kids should be doing a lot of low pressure ungraded thinking. Do quick write and put it on the board; collect the notebooks -- points for completion. you write 8 I read the 1 you are proudest of. Kids have to be writing way more than the teacher can read.#writecenterlive
