Venturing forth on another expedition to Teachers College to further explore Readers Workshop.

2011

Back in the saddle again for Round 3. K and I are ready to add some shine to our Writers Workshop strategies this summer. Until we jump on the bandwagon Monday morning we are taking note of the metropolitan environs... and then some.

2010


After jumping in with both feet, teaching Readers and Writers Workshop in our classrooms for a year, K and I are back at Teachers College for Act II. We are attending Readers Workshop and will be filling the bill with more strategy focused morning and afternoon sessions. Until Monday, when the training gets underway, we are obligated to paint the town red, (or "read", as the case may be).

Back Spacer



Blurry eyed and bushy tailed from our red eye flight, we set out to begin our "refresher course" by eating our way from one end of this berg to the other at some of our favorite haunts.
First stop was the, now traditional, cannoli and cappuccino in Greenwich Village. Excellent wake up call... Note K's bracelet that
she bought at a street fair here last summer - it's a typewriter key - "back spacer." Some things are worth a return visit.















Next stop, back up the island to Dinosaur BBQ. We tried to break our way into this popular Q joint last year, and never quite made it past the lengthy wait to get a table. Finally the early birds got the worm! Ribs, chicken, deviled eggs, greens, cornbread, fried green tomatoes and more.








Stuffed to the gills, we moseyed on over to our fav market to stock up on breakfast and lunch provisions for the week. Alas, weak from our carnivorous consumption, we didn't don the giant, silver "cold room" jackets this go 'round.
