As 2023 approaches, many people like to look forward to the New Year. Today, I invite you to instead look back and reflect. What did 2022 bring you? Celebrations or disappointment? Accomplishments or setbacks? Originality or monotony? No matter what you experienced this past year, take time to acknowledge it before you set your sights on the future. Please share your thoughts with us, and comment on at least three other slices.

Leah Thomas is passionate about honoring student voice and identity through writing workshop and early literacy. She believes that for children to see themselves as writers, they must be trusted with autonomy and supported as they explore their writing processes. By centering intentional identity development, foundational skills instruction, and a brave classroom community, Leah nurtures young writers as they grow in both skill and craft. The Gateway Writing Project strengthens her belief that teachers who write are better writing teachers.
