Professional Learning: Book Study

It is through the spirit of collaboration that great things are accomplished.  As you look around Houlton, the collaborative spirit shines through in everything we do.  It's the group effort to make sure the lunchroom is ready for gym each day, the PBIS communication and focus based on everyone's input, the coverage of positions when subs can't be found - it's all of these things, and more, that create a successful learning environment at Houlton.

For those participating, this Friday is our first meeting for the book studies (The Next Steps in Guided Reading and Notice and Note).  The goal of these conversations is to increase our learning about reading instruction, to enhance our professional support system, and build success for ourselves and our learners.

Our first book study meeting for teachers of literacy is Friday, Jan. 15th at 8:00 in the media center. You're invited to bring treats to share. I'm excited about this opportunity for K-5 collaborative discussions!

Have a great week!
