Jacinta---That is helpful info. I appreciate that! I'm coming from Texas, and I've compared the weather to Philly in the last couple of weeks. We're having the unpredictable weather as well and have actually been colder here than in Philly on seve...
Jacinta, I had to laugh when I saw your post. That summed up exactly how I felt when I looked at the online guide. Like an enormous buffet, you want to make sure you taste the things that you need to taste, try the new things, and maybe revisit so...
Kevin, great work at your school! I love that idea.
Our day was amazing! We started around 8:45 with the entire district creating a sidewalk-chalk writing gallery. We're a small district, so it was manageable. I'm at the middle school, so, while the 5th-8th grade were working hard on their writing,...
As a first-time attendee, I'm hoping to keep from being too overwhelmed. There's so many sessions I want to attend that it's hard to choose! I'm on my state board in Texas, TCTELA, and have always attended our state conference, which is top-notch....
Here in Eldorado, TX, our entire district will be writing short pieces on sidewalks with sidewalk chalk. We'll do this at the same time on Tuesday as we have a possibility of a news crew coming out from the nearest city to film us. In social studi...

This group is for sharing information about NCTE's National Day on Writing (NDW) that will be celebrated on October 20, 2009.
Two of my favorites to read aloud to sixth graders are The Watsons Go to Birmingham: 1963 and Becoming Naomi Léon. At the eighth grade level, I reallly enjoy reading The Boy in the Striped Pajamas and The Boy Who Dared.

MIT university is trying to build a free resource to help kids learn SAT/ACT thru the power of user-generated images and video. We are currently running a nationwide contest, challenging kids to make fun and memorable flashcards by pairing sentences and images to a common test word. There will be a small cash prize and iTunes giveaways. Due date is May 22.
More details at brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules. Do you have students or colleagues who would be interested?

Has anyone been able to track down these materials? I loved the presentation, but the presenters ran out of handouts. I signed up for the email list, but haven't heard anything yet.
Just wondering if anyone saw materials on here?
Thank you so much for posting this, Michael. I was unable to attend your session but really enjoyed reading through your presentation. Can't tell you how much I agree with you about how knowing that a story is told in first or third person tells y...
