Day 2




From Jamie, Rebecka: We are impressed with the number of participants in the teacher group who are continuing their education with further degrees and certification. The teachers are very compassionate, enthusiastic, and are like sponges absorbing the material. We are enjoying the active participation and discussion. A participant mentioned that she wished the day was longer as she had so much to learn. The teachers in attendance were hopeful that their enthusiasm would inspire their administrators and colleagues.


From Cindi and Larry: The basic understanding of balanced literacy among particpants was impressive. The adminstrators and GMs demonstrated a desire to continue to promote balanced literacy in their schools. They really loved the "Who wants to be a millionaire?" literacy game! One principal testimonial: "Balanced literacy will move our educational system forward."
