My personal goal this quarter is to be more consistent with getting to the share portion of my workshops. This day was so rewarding and insightful!

Making sure to always leave time for the share is such an important part of Writers Workshop! Thanks Mrs. Jackie Pace for letting me part of this special time as your kdg students celebrated what they have learned as writers! Gretchko Elementary

Working on my kindergarten Look Book display for #BlackHistoryMonth …how can I make it better? Any recommendations or must haves? These 3 Gretchko Elementary helped me organize our books & are feeling super proud & excited to check out this new display! #onlyWB Jen Teal (she/her)
