I've found that a reading workshop is the most humane and effective way to get kids to read and read a lot, but I'm discouraged by how few of my colleagues use it, much less know about it.

what do you mean by reading workshop? maybe we do it and call it something different... I have found literature circles to be very engaging for my students- maybe that's the same thing

I read The Book Whisperer and Reading in the Wild this summer and they have reinforced this perspective in my mind. It's been great!

I’ve been working in operations at a film/tv distribution company in NYC for close to 7 years earning 70k base. This is the only company I’ve ever worked for. I know I have enough experience to qualify as a director because my colleague has this title and they do the same type of work. I’ve also been at the company longer than everyone on my team. I work fairly long hours and often find myself staying after 6 to finish assignments. I don’t get paid OT. What should I negotiate in the next review?

What are your thoughts on the complaint filed on behalf of Frank Garrison seeking to stop student loan forgiveness bc he doesn’t want to pay $646 in state income taxes? Link below.

Obviously, this goes to your political feelings on the matter, which is probably why the ATL coverage bugged me.

I decided that in the fall I want to change up how we work on college essays and focus more heavily on creative non-fiction as a literary form in general, then change that over to using these strategies/concepts in their own essays. I think this might alleviate some of the pressure while also inspiring them to get a bit more creative with it and showing them all that a personal essay can be. Thoughts?
