It was so great to meet up with @RiffelJamie to catch up & reflect on our first year experiences. Her student are so lucky to have her as a teacher. (I was so lucky to have her as a student teacher!) Sometimes the best professional learning happens over drinks and apps. 🍹 🍤 🌮

Today every fourth grader entered a magical forest of their own making. Embracing spontaneity & creative risks, they staged A Midsummer Night's Dream w/ guidance from Shakespeare Theatre of NJ. Bravo to the cast & all who supported them from rehearsals to final show! 🎭 🧚 🫏

When conferring with readers and writers, having clear and predictable structures is so helpful. This is my go-to structure for goal-setting conferences, which comes from my book, A Teacher’s Guide to Reading Conferences heinemann.com/products/e0991…

As a teacher, it's SO important to stay cognitively engaged in your work—& in a blended learning environment, opportunities to architect learning experiences help you do just that.

My new favorite word: sonder.
It's the profound awareness that every person you encounter has experienced a lifetime of hopes, fears, loves, and heartaches that you'll never know.
