The Lucy Calkins workshop was fantastic.
I highly reccommend attending. I added a few anchor
chart pictures from mini lessons - silent reading voices,
Ken Goodman's Model of Proficient Silent Reading, Nonfiction Conventions.

Here is a site that has great free photographs for projects.

of my morning powerpoint for the kids. It plays a slideshow of
their morning duties.

The new F&P
benchmark assessment has been out a few months
and is broken into 2 kits:
Kit #1: Grades K-2 with Levels A-N
Kit #2: Grades 3-8 with Levels L-Z
Each kit is $250.00.
Look at the running
record calculator/stopwatch it comes with! Even
if you don't purchase a kit, the nifty gadget can be bought separately
at 19.95!

This past school year, I wrote to 180 book companies
telling them about our campus. After stating the demographics
and extremely high number of our students living in low

receive free publication samples, over-runs, discontinuations
or warehouse samples from their company. This table shows the
overwhelming responses we received. Who would have thought? Ask
your Literacy Coach to do the same for your campus.

powerful visual I saw online:
