Getting Ready for the First Day

After our meeting, I really began thinking about my first steps those first days of school. You all really helped me think about some of the things I’ve not been doing, even though I know I should.

The first is getting back to reading…helping people access text that may not be one they want to read…to establish clear purposes for it, and making logical next-step assignmnets that move their reading to a more pertinant writing assignment.

The second is using examples that illustrate my expectations. It’s not that I don’t do this, I just need to do it more and with current work done by the kids sitting in the room. So I’m thinking about this stuff, and am working on taking action on these things.
