All the family has left and only 4 more weeks of summer left for me. It will be great to spend it learning, reading and "digging" in with friends. Thanks for the nudge!Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14033713836621074476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-57339127617370227322011-07-08T09:05:47.983-05:002011-07-08T09:05:47.983-05:00Michelle~

Like Cathy I find writing conferences easier to maintain, reading poses challenges for me. I am not sure why because readers workshop is so much richer with conferring. I look forward to reading and learning together. Can't wait for the Sara story, two of my favorites, pirates and reading! <br />~debDeb Frazierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357198767241625023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-32534087712026724132011-07-07T07:51:53.163-05:002011-07-07T07:51:53.163-05:00Michelle,

Your words "these are kids ...." unfortunately rang so true to me. I am not sure why it happens but when we reduce the act of teaching to just assigning we lose so much ground with our students. I am looking forward to reading your next post.<br />TonyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-42555028222242985132011-07-07T06:58:11.093-05:002011-07-07T06:58:11.093-05:00I too thought of Gail and Joan when reading Patric...I too thought of Gail and Joan when reading Patrick's work! They are so explicit in explaining to children what the roles are for students and teachers to help get the year started. I found his guidance, mentor text for getting start similiar and needed for any classroom.

I've read Cafe and am implementing it (s-l-o-w-l-y) into my classroom. I really believe this book with help me to really get better with Cafe AND conferring!<br />~LauraLaura Komoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660151898042277596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-32615571500960108112011-07-06T16:54:22.752-05:002011-07-06T16:54:22.752-05:00Michelle,

Thankfully, I have never had to use that system. I also loved the quote you mentioned, "Conferring nudges students towards independence". I truly believe that and I need to remember that every day as I work with my students.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />JillJill Fischhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13162764425985636884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-79629738552947973612011-07-06T11:10:10.383-05:002011-07-06T11:10:10.383-05:00Michelle,

I'm glad Patrick has specifically talked about conferring in reading (though I notice it is hard to stay away from writing). I've always found it easy to maintain conferences in Writer's Workshop, but I find Reader's Workshop to be more of a challenge. Patrick's book is giving me some time to think about that. I'm thinking having everyone's thoughts will also help.<br /><br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.com
