I’ve been reading Lynne Dorfman and Rose Cappelli’s new book, Poetry Mentor Texts: Making Reading and Writing Connections, K-8.  They have a reminder, on page five of their book, that is worthy of repeating today and every day:

As a teacher of writers, it is important to be a teacher who writes.

Published by Stacey Shubitz

I am a literacy consultant who focuses on writing workshop. I've been working with K-6 teachers and students since 2009. Prior to that, I was a fourth and fifth-grade teacher in New York City and Rhode Island. I'm the author of Craft Moves (Stenhouse Publishers, 2016) and the co-author of Jump Into Writing (Zaner-Bloser, 2021), Welcome to Writing Workshop (Stenhouse Publishers, 2019), and Day By Day (Stenhouse, 2010). I live in Central Pennsylvania with my husband and children. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, doing Pilates, cooking, baking, making ice cream, and reading novels.

  2. Just “giving it a go”, as I tell my students… Considering I am an “older” teacher, how do you get a blogspot email? Stacey’s workshop yesterday “set my mind on fire” to start writing myself.

  17. Okay, here it is. My entry. I made it past a number of levels in DL Hammon’s WRiTE Club writing challenge. Now I need to know. Should I turn writer? I’m a fully retired teacher now. I like writing. Maybe could this be part of a YA book? I just don’t know if I have a whole story in me….or just parts! I’ll post the next part tomorrow, if anyone thinks they’d like to read more. http://mainelywrite.blogspot.com/2012/11/my-entry.html
