Thank you for sharing. It is a struggle to get students to read like writers- love the creativity of using legos.

HUGE thanks to all the presenters that helped us put on a FANTASTIC conference! 🙏 And thanks to everyone who continues to 'attend.' #BetterTogether #ELLs

Surveyed my new seniors. 72% of them cannot identify a single author they like. Two-thirds of them “never” read in their spare time. Never. I know there are many factors behind this, but I can’t help wonder what role schools have played in killing the ❤️ of reading.

Kids will remember very few rules and procedures from their first days of school, but they surely will remember whether or not they feel safe, comfortable, and welcomed by their teacher.

Focus on relationships before rules.

I'm not asking math teachers to teach writing. I'm asking math teachers to use writing to teach math. All Ss will learn your math better. #mathchat #ellchat #ells
