Contacting Me... I strongly encourage my fellow teacher-leaders to post their original "best practice" resources somewhere on-line for other teachers to discover..and appreciate. I believe if we all did this, we would eliminate the need to purchase expensive text books with mediocre lessons (at best) created by educators who've been out of the classroom too long. My fellow teachers, we need to change the world one lesson at a time; the Internet is a perfect tool for us to begin the process. Whether you blog, or tweet, or ning, or build an actual website from scratch, make sure you share those things you know work with kids! I invite you to contact me about any of the resources or ideas I have posted at my site. Here is my e-mail address: Since starting this website, I have received thousands of wonderful e-mails from teachers all over the globe. Thanks in advance for the kind words. Occasionally, I receive a teacher-request that asks me to offer advice on changing a way that teacher uses writing in his/her classroom. This is a pretty big request to make of someone who is a full-time teacher, and I apologize in advance for only being able to share brief ideas when I receive this type of correspondence. The truth is that it took me many years of diligent lesson revision and experimentation to become a teacher who teaches writing well to middle school students. If you're struggling with big changes that you know need to happen in your school or classroom, or you're looking for how to begin making those changes, what I can do is suggest for you the three books that I would start with. These are the books that helped me begin the journey from being a fair writing teacher to being a strong writing teacher.
