Good teaching is good teaching. Too often we get caught up in what’s happening in our own classroom walls or in the faculty lounge of our own school building. This blog is a place that erases all of those barriers and focuses simply on teaching kids to write and catching minds in the midst. It’s happening not only 872 miles apart, but in classrooms beyond our Midwestern town and East Coast City.
TWO WRITING TEACHERS is a place:
For teachers to be fueled with a passion for teaching, writing, and living.
For teachers to see the latest in research and ways to apply it in their classrooms.
For us to “practice what we preach” by sharing our own writing.
To bring writing teachers together to share ideas and stretch each other’s thinking.
To reflect on our teaching — celebrating when it goes well and working it out when it doesn’t.





I would say that is a powerful mission statement and your openness about your intent and mission is to be commended. I also believe that teachers of writing should also be writing themselves.

As I stated in my other comment, it’s great to see teachers utilizing the latest in social networking (ie. Blogs), and online resources. The latest waves of technology are changing the way the classroom is run, and creating endless opportunity for students. I actually viewed a video earlier today that I thought might interest you, it’s called Learn to Change and it discusses the current state of the classroom and it’s evolution. It’s worth a look!
Keep up the good work!
