⁦@natalielouis13⁩ asked the child “can I show you what you got right about this word?” Honoring what the child brought to the table while still offering the correct spelling #tcrwp #onemorse

As technology continues to grow, it seems that our kids’ ability to talk for long periods of time on one topic is dwindling. We need to encourage conversations-both social and academic. Social talk makes academic talk better! @MissNFriday

@MissNFriday You’re always so good about this!! #goals

Use quick, frequent, low stakes assessments, especially for students who might be struggling. Our teaching is more energized and more purposeful when we know our strident and their strengths! @ValGeschwind #tcrwp

Welcome @katrinadavino as a co-author of Still Learning! Here’s our next post with some great nonfiction texts. @mcmounteer mariemounteer.substack.com/p/6-great-nonf…

As a writing teacher, my main question was, "What's it like?" What's it like to have lived your life? To be you?What future do you see for yourself? And how can we use writing and reading to explore these questions?

This is a really great idea!
