The writing/reading connection means more than having your students write under the influence of literature that they have read! Noted author and educator Connie Campbell Dierking shows you how to develop a literacy-connected classroom, including using oral storytelling to scaffold primary reading and writing. She supplies more than 50 mini-lessons--organized by their classroom function--to help you explicitly teach foundational literacy skills during writer's workshop or whole-class and small-group reading instruction. Dierking encourages you to make the most of the writing/reading connection by thinking about some basic questions when you're crafting your literacy instruction: How can I connect the conversations in reading and writing workshop? What can I learn about the readers in my classroom through their writing? What can my students learn about reading through writing? How can I teach young writers to support their readers? How can I teach readers how to use a writer's supports intentionally?

In today's classrooms, the instructional needs and developmental levels of our students are highly varied, and the conventional math whole-group model has its downsides. In contrast to the rigid, one-size-ts-all approach of conventional whole-group instruction, guided math allows us to structure our math block to support student learning in risk-free, small-group instruction. Guided math goes beyond just reorganizing your math block; it also gives you an opportunity to approach math instruction with a renewed sense of perspective and purpose. Drawing on two decades of experience, Reagan Tunstall oers step-by-step best practices to help educators revolutionize their math blocks with a student-centered approach. Whether you're a new teacher who's curious about guided math or a veteran educator looking to hone your methodology, Guided Math AMPED will transform your math block into an exciting and engaging encounter that encourages your students to see themselves as genuine mathematicians. "Most educators have come to realize that the magic happens at the teacher table or during small-group instruction. If that's the case, Guided Math AMPED is the spell book." -JENNIFER SALYARDS, M.Ed., principal, Chamberlin Elementary, Stephenville ISD "Guided Math AMPED provides educators with a practical framework for enhancing math instruction in a way that provides research-based practices, differentiated instruction, and fun, all while strengthening relationships with students and developing math mindsets.
