Oh What Slackers We Have Been! (Plus some web resources)

Ok, so the post title isn't totally true. 
We have been administering our state assessment.
It has been a time crunched, exhausted, crazy couple of weeks!
The good news is I think our kids did the BEST they could!  I watched them feverishly writing on scrap paper, and taking their time to take the test. 
We will find out in the fall!
We have been slcking on this blog, though!
I will be posting throughout the week on our Mosaic of Thought book club.  We had some great discussions!
Also over the last few weeks, Antoinette and I both saw Debbie Miller speak.  We will definitely posting our thoughts on that when we get some time.  (Plus I get to see her again the first week of May!) 


This week, I have been looking at some more wesites based on Reader's Workshop that I wanted to share with you.


The links on this site are AMAZING!

The videos are worth watching, whether you are beginning or a seasoned pro at Readers Workshop.
