Don't Get Lost in the Sea of Potential

There's so much potential for teaching today that one can get lost without regular weeding and pruning the list.  I decluttered the professional path, and here's what remains.

1. Razia's Ray of Hope Read Like a Writer Book Study.
2. Math model research, lesson plans.
3. Bike Hike narrative work, share.
4. Specific math lessons, assignments.
5. Write a Narrative website, student work.
6. Close reading read and research.
7. Report card writing.
8. Weekly assessment, reporting schedule.
9. Overall focus on student response and learning design to teach children well.

Okay, a turn from the big picture back to the details related to good teaching.  Start now!
