I'm a leader who loves to read and wants to share the love! Saturday, July 9, 2016. You All Raise Me Up. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;. I am strong when I am on your shoulders;. You raise me up to more than I can be. And ' Gaudy Goals. But that conference came and went, and I traveled back to school, back to admin island to keep doing my thing at my school on my own. Just kidding, they looked more like this. Until you come and sit awhile with me.

http://readerandleader.blogspot.com/2016/07/bookfessions-of-two-readaholics.html
I'm a leader who loves to read and wants to share the love! Friday, July 22, 2016. Bookfessions of Two Readaholics. This post was co-written by Lindsy Stumpenhorst. This spring, Illinois had an insane amount of rain. As in…4 inches per hour. I (Lindsy) am an insanely committed person and as I was walking down the basement stairs to my 4:30am dread-mill workout, I was greeted with a carpet full of sopping wetness. My first thought as my sock absorbed the moisture was, “Oh No! Enter stage left…. He sent me...

Reader and Leader: In This Moment

I'm a leader who loves to read and wants to share the love! Sunday, August 14, 2016. Being both a principal and a mom, I know a thing or two about time. For one thing, I am always trying to find more of it! Minutes, hours, days, school years seem to fly by faster than the ones before. It seems like more often than not, I look up at the clock in my office and it reads 8:00am, and then suddenly I am glancing up and it's 3:30pm. Where does the time go? In that moment, I could have rocked all night and watch...

Monday, January 25, 2016. You go back to the cookbook and follow the recipe. I am looking forward to popping into classrooms to see Reader's Workshop in action. I may even have our reading coach join me on a few visits.

What will you cook up in Reader's Workshop this week? And Hate That Cat. Liz at Crisis Mana...
