Professional Reading

 One thing I love most about the Ridge is that teachers are always reading professional books. It is such a great way to stretch yourself as a learner and teacher. These are a few of my favorite things:

Writer's Workshop

Units of study for Primary Writing by Lucy Calkins and Colleagues from the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project

Reading

Growing Readers by Cathy Collins

Reading with Meaning By Debbie Miller

Literacy Stations

Literacy Work Stations by Debbie Diller

Math

Math Work Stations by Debbie Diller

Developing Number Concepts 1&2 by Kathy Richardson

And I just picked this one up:

Small Groups

Making the Most of Small Groups by Debbie Diller

If you get the chance- you should check one or all of these books out. They are fantastic.
