Midway Teachers collaborate and reflect to plan TDA instruction this semester. @Midway_Mustangs #lex1leads #lex1literacy

Do you have a anchor chart like this in your classroom? @Midway_Mustangs #lex1literacy

Important for students to see and unpack learning targets. Refer often to the learning targets during workshop. @Midway_Mustangs #lex1literacy

MES writers are successful in writing workshop as they have needed tools at their fingertips and time to write.@Midway_Mustangs #lex1literacy

Do your students have reading goals? MES students do.@Midway_Mustangs @lex1literacy
