The Reader In-between...

 For all the reading teachers out there, I'm sure you can relate to this question...  What happens to the reader in-between? Teaching young readers is full of challenges, such as balancing phonics instruction with comprehension, transferring ideas to writing, and introducing vocabulary and grammar. One issue I often witness is my readers who have graduated from simple picture books with basic plots and characters are not yet ready for full chapter books... which often leads them to empty-choice shelves.  I wouldn't exactly call my learning experience today a "discovery," as that indicates something new and revelational, however I was exposed to information I did know on a deeper level.  For my podcast choice today I selected Scholastic's July 18, 2019 Growing Readers with Branches and Acorn . Honestly, the title intrigued me, as I did not know the implication. Being an advocate for Scholastic, and (bragging rights!) Red Apple teacher, I feel I'm well versed i...

The Four "R's" for Teachers

 Welcome back friends! I hope you're feeling excited and energized from your week. If you're not, and you're looking for some inspiration, have no fear, you're in the right place because I have a treat for you this week. As I was thinking about what to share with all of you, I realized I had my idea with me right from the start. Whenever I'm feeling tired, overwhelmed and disorganized, or just need a pick-me-up. I turn to my trusted four "R's."  This week is a great time to embrace the four “R’s” to help us continue through the new year and work on our challenges and boost our energy. In order to continue to grow as teachers (and leaders!) it’s important to: reflect, reset, reignite, and reframe . Each of these helps us to be in the right mindset to think of where we are in our learning journey, and what our goals are. Each one affects the other and together they can make a difference to us as teachers. Reflect: Even when we don’t think we are, educat...

New Beginnings for Old Adventures

Starting to work again on a curriculum set for Differentiated Instruction for KDP University. My friend and fellow Kadelpian and I have teamed up to work together and share our knowledge and passion for the topic, while embarking on a journey of writing a curriculum set for the very first time.  I'm eager to continue exploring my writing and publishing on various topics in education, so hopefully this will be a success for us.  Admittedly we had to shelve the material for a while due to other commitments and time constraints, but now we are energized and ready to strike the match under our work again.  When laying the groundwork, there are many things that worry me about the process, such as resources, and just like differentiated instruction for students should meet all of their learning needs, I wish to meet the needs for all the teachers that will view our course.  Feeling inspired, anxious, and motivated.  Let's keep moving!
