LOVE IT! I also like your idea about using labels inside books to help remember how you use them when you share them. My wiki will allow me (and others) to record the WHY behind the books we share and cross referencing is totally acceptable too. I need master list to track how I use my "special" books. So much to think about still. SPINNING HEAD as usual.

How exciting will it be to have these focus points of connection through the year! Ann is reading Choice Words right now (see her recent post) and it is on my list to start soon. And we both recently read The Passion Driven classroom and are brainstorming how to mesh some of the ideas from this Amazing book into our learning environment. (along with how to use Wonderopolis more each week to support non-fiction literacy!)<br /><br />2 years ago one of my goals involved mentor texts, and one of the things I am so glad I did (especially years later) was on the inside cover I used mailing labels to record the purposes I used the specific mentor text for. For instance, I may have used a book to cover the genre of fantasy, then later to discuss sensory words, and maybe again later in the year to highlight author's purpose. Each time I utilized a mentor text, I recorded this information inside the front cover separately. This also really helped in collaboration with other teachers, or when someone requested a book to teach a specific skill. Prior to this I organized books by specific skill, but when this became a focused goal I began using mentor texts intentionally for a variety or purposes. <br /><br />Thank you, thank you for sharing your goals! So inspired to work on finalizing mine :)<br /><br />~CelinaAnn and Celinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06312634039114655676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730514995199630178.post-5966446591410334132012-07-21T19:14:22.521-07:002012-07-21T19:14:22.521-07:00Karen, thanks for sharing your goals here!
