I just finished up a course on diagnosing and correcting reading deficiencies in middle and high school students. One of the most useful courses I’ve ever taken — especially the book: Kylene Beers’ When Kids Can’t Read: What Teachers Can Do. It’s my new classroom Bible.
The course was a one-semester course crammed into one month, what my school calls, appropriately enough, “January term.”
Which is finally over. And which explains how we could take the Girl ice skating for the first time and it receive nary a mention here…
Maybe over the weekend…
