I read this book about a year and a half ago for the class I was taking w/the UWP. I appreciate this book because as much as I wanted to do writing workshop trying to implement it into the middle school model is challenging. The book is extremely encouraging but also really useful. I was reminded of why we do things the way we do as well as remembering that sometimes we have to change things in order to fit our kids.
I need to be reminded that this is worth it. There is a reason behind the madness. That is such a useful thing to be reminded of... Conferencing ends up being the hardest with short amounts of time so I loved that I got the chapter that remined me why conferencing is important and that the main thing I need to do is LISTEN :)
