Grade 7 enjoying this beautiful day with their books and notebooks 📚📓 @TCRWP #tcrwp

Thank you, Philip Seyfried for a fascinating Keynote today! Now, I'm thinking, with digital citizenship, as long as we are very cautious about security, flattening & bias, AI can be an imperfect learning partner for both Ts & Ss for support, reflection, feedback... @TCRWP

Middle/High school writing workshop training. 🤩 Afternoon necessities for my learning. 😍 #tcrwp

Can't help but think of the power a chart like this could have in so many classrooms! What punctuation do we know/use and why? Katy Wischow @TCRWP #tcadvancingliteracy

So fun to listen to Carmen Agra Deedy tell stories this morning. She reminds us: the oldest pedagogical tool in your toolbox is story. Story does its work. If we get out of the way, the story does its good work. TCRWP #tcrwp

Loved learning from Katy Wischow about ways to embed grammar and conventions across the writing process and our day so that it’s more meaningful and creates opportunities for repeated practice, exposure, and transfer. #tcrwp

Can you make a bug? A car? How about a house? Today our #zumpettaszone friends used whiteboards and their knowledge of just right shapes to draw familiar objects. TCRWP

The #SaturdayReunion never disappoints! My brain is on fire after listening to Carl talk about Coaching into Kids Conversations #TCRWP #AdvancingLiteracy #RSDreading

We officially own the letter “Mm”! On Friday, our #zumpettaszone friends learned the importance of owning letters to help strengthen their reading and writing. We focused on identifying the letter, producing its sound, writing the letter and using the letter. @TCRWP #phonics

Engaged in professional development this morning with TCRWP - continuing to grow myself so I can grow others-
