This morning, I left my house at 5:30 and drove to Teachers College at Columbia University for their spring Reading and Writing Project Saturday Reunion. I spent the day with thousands of dedicated teachers soaking up the wisdom of the amazing presenters. Because I am now quite tired, here is my day in pictures.
As you can see, Saturday Reunions are an incredible experience. I learned so much today! You can also explore what others learned by checking out the #TCRWP hashtag on Twitter. Thank you to Lucy Calkins and everyone at Teachers College for a fabulous day!
Thank you to Stacey and Ruth at Two Writing Teachers for hosting this Slice of Life Challenge!

Wow! So jealous of your amazing day!
I so miss my writing project days. Our local site closed after 25+ years. This was and remains the best PD I’ve ever had.
Glad you got to experience it again!

Sounds heavenly. Loved your photos and captions. I was at a competing event at SUNY New Paltz for our Hudson Valley Writing Project. It’s wonderful to share and learn together with great teachers even in our crazy times.

Oh so jealous it would be a dream come true to attend the reunion. I always get the invite, but Oklahoma is a little far for a day trip. Thank you for sharing!
