We’ve had some important posts over the last two weeks. Here’s a recap of what you might have missed.

GETTING TO KNOW STUDENTS
If you’re looking to get to know students, you’ll want to read Jessica Carey’s post about identity webs.
Stacey and I also talked about the importance of getting to know writers in your classrooms on our first episode of Season 3.
And, I shared questions I try to remember and focus on at the beginning of the year.

Spelling is always on students’ minds as they settle back into their writing lives, and Stacey’s post suggests many ways to build independent spellers.
You can also build writers’ independence with the Ready-Do-Done routine, described on Stacey’s Tip for Tomorrow on the podcast and her ideas for building routines for independence in last week’s post.
