“Maslow before they bloom.” Thank you, Tyrone Howard, for this afternoon’s closing. #TCRWP

Enjoyed learning about the many useful ways to use Bands of Text Complexity from @AldaneseJ this morning! And his sense of humor was a plus.😄 One of my favorite sessions! #tcrwp #saturdayreunion @PathwaysLCPS

Important steps to move readers up levels all point to those power skills (blending and segmenting)🙌🏻@ForestGroveES @PathwaysLCPS #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion @suewaffle2

It’s all about transfer! The workshop structure isn’t just about learning to be readers & writers- it’s about building life skills @AlexisCzeterko #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion

Don’t one and done your conferences or small groups. Think of them as a series - what strategy do you want them to know? How can we vary our teaching and scaffolding over the next few sessions to get them to do this independently at the end? @AlexisCzeterko #TCRWP

Antirasism work includes making mistakes. Expect it. I appreciate how @SonjaCherryPaul helps us understand the difference between calling folks in and calling folks out. #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion

Such rich wisdom from a literacy giant. @LucyCalkins reminds us to pause and choose wisely. Together we can come back stronger from Covid, reconstructing a better world for ALL kids. #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion #KellerLiteracy

Learners need practice, approximation, time and feedback. What can we do to move them along in their learning? We can vary our methods of teaching and adjust our scaffolding. @AlexisCzeterko #TCRWP

Workshop is more than teaching reading and writing skills. It’s helping kids learn and transfer collaboration, independence, critical thinking skills. @AlexisCzeterko #TCRWP

Thank you @SonjaCherryPaul for sharing this thoughtful protocol for calling folks into a conversation about antirasism. The scenario you provided us with for practice feels radically important. #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion

All kids deserve a teacher who says, "I am not going to let you fail because I see more in you than you see in yourself. I will go to the end of the Earth to make sure school is what you need it to be." ~@LucyCalkins #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion

Do the books in your classroom include titles that celebrate different kinds of communication? Gesture? (Look at Drawn Together!) @sfrazintcrwp #TCRWP

90 minutes per day of reading across school day matters @DFISHERSDSU LOVE the motto "The Best Intervention is a Good Book." Research backs it up!

Practice matters. Time in text is as important as instruction.
