http://literacycoachingservices.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 29, 2011. The End of Another Year. Here we are facing the end of another year. It's a time of reflection. A time of new beginnings. For me, this was the year that I went back to the classroom after almost 15 years as a resource teacher/Literacy Coach. And I count myself privileged to be back in Kindergarten after 17 years! And boy have things changed in that time. I've been blogging most of my classroom experiences over here at The Learning Garden. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Featured ...

http://literacycoachingservices.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 27, 2011. Our first week back in K was amazing!

Socially speaking: I know that one child knows all about raccoon poop, another collected special crystals from his seawall, and still another loves going to eat out at fine restaurants with the family! Friday, August 19, 2011. Now, that sa...

Literacy Coaching: September 2011
http://literacycoachingservices.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 03, 2011. Week 3 is approaching. I have loved my first two weeks back in full time Kindergarten! I have to say that one of the biggest blessings (above the sweet kids) are their parents! I love it that I have parents who WANT to be involved in their child's education. Actually, no child should have to "go it alone". It's just that the years I've spent in Title I made me know that so many do! Honestly, it's refreshing to be surrounded by supportive parents.
