Praise for Kim - Conferring with Writers

Your presentation included all the important point: content, examples, demonstration, active engagement. Each piece was clearly tied to your goals and could easily be incorporated right away in a classroom.

I like your several practices you gave us and the opportunity to try it out.

Super job connecting the different points you made with personal experiences.

Praise for Susan - Reading through a Writer’s Lens

I REALLY appreciated the specificity of your instruction and the practice opportunities - useful materials too.

Thank you for sharing your collection of beautiful books. The process for “gathering craft from literature” was effective.

This presentation touches what I believe is most important for literacy teachers.

Loved the work you built into your presentation. It was very fruitful and important.

I loved having time to read picture books!! And the emphasis on slowing down.

Great presentation - loaded with practical information, just enough info to satisfy but not overwhelm.

Thank you! Excellent! Brought home the importance of really showing what showing means!

The activities provided tons of inspiration. Chock full of great info and lists of ideas for all grades levels.

Craft vs. message - so much of the separation of these 2 things aligns with my own workshop! You did an excellent job and I love your passion for this; it’s infectious.
