I am a literacy consultant who focuses on writing workshop. I've been working with K-6 teachers and students since 2009. Prior to that, I was a fourth and fifth-grade teacher in New York City and Rhode Island.
I'm the author of Craft Moves (Stenhouse Publishers, 2016) and the co-author of Jump Into Writing (Zaner-Bloser, 2021), Welcome to Writing Workshop (Stenhouse Publishers, 2019), and Day By Day (Stenhouse, 2010).
I live in Central Pennsylvania with my husband and children. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, doing Pilates, cooking, baking, making ice cream, and reading novels.

TWO WRITING TEACHERS 
How do you make these “scrapbook” pages? I love it!

I will try making it bigger… I had a hard time finding a format this week that didn’t pixelate the photos. I’ll keep the font size in line for next time too.
Thanks Bonnie!

I love the format you are using on Flickr and the story you are sharing. Is there a way to make the text bigger, though, just on a practical note.
As for the story, I can so relate. Love the photos to support the text.

I can always count on you to read my stuff first-thing in the morning. I think we both wake up too early for our respective jobs.
And yes, this was hard. Even harder was that I got Bat Mitzvahed on June 2nd, 1990… just a few months after he died. He was an observant Jew, so I really missed his presence on that day. Hence, I am even more thankful that I had these last three days with him, while he was still well.
Best,

I love how you were able to surprise him, and I am sorry you lost him not long afterwards.
“Twisting the door bell” seems so quaint and a perfect way to begin.
