Parking Lot

This space is designed to be a place where you can "park" your ideas about what you would like to see next year from the Literacy Cohort.

Let me share an example:
Jen may decide that she wants to focus on struggling readers. Coincidentally, so may Carol. Todd may have liked the cooperative strategies that we talked about and wants to pursue them a little deeper next year and share them with his team. Liz may be interested in learning more about visualization strategies.

In my mind, it is positively fine if you all want to dig deeper into different areas of literacy. We can differentiate YOUR learning! Please post ideas or questions here in the Parking Lot.

Installment 3: Instructional Conversation

Claire shared what I will call a hybrid Instructional Conversation with our group: part explaining and teaching, part conversation about Frost's poem The Road Not Taken. Based on this and any other experiences you've had with IC, what are your thoughts? How will you use it in your classroom? How have you used it since we met? What did you think? How did your students react?
