Hello Everyone! Yes, I am still around. I have not started my summer yet. I've been working hard with a small group of amazing ladies to integrate our social studies and reading curricula. This kind of integration is right up my alley, so I had to say yes when approached about doing this for our district. We have about 5 more days of work before we will be ready to share. Lots of work, but fun and I think, rewarding! I am also working on a district sponsored facebook book study. I think I mentioned last time that we are reading "...And With a Light Touch" by Carol Avery. Great resource for teachers of K-1 reading and writing. In her book she devotes some time talking about little mini conferences for both reading and writing, and trying to conference with every kiddo every day. I am going to strive to do that this coming year. But knowing that I am the worst when it comes to documentation, I knew I needed a quick form to show with whom I've conferred and just a place to show observations. Here's what I created based on my reading. These short sheets are meant to be a quick documentation of observations from a roving conference, just check or highlight.They are not meant to take the place of guided reading anecdotes or records. For a very quick conference observation sheet, move quick and click here! :) Let me know if you can use these, or if you would like to see them in a different form. As always, thanks for stopping by! Joyfully! Nancy
