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).

Form Over Funtion








On our way to board the uptown train Saturday night at the South Ferry stop. After being packed into cars like sardines most of the time, we had the whole shebang to ourselves! Kind of eery.



Greeted Sunday morning with some summer showers.















We took shelter from "The Storm" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.



In order to get behind the more recent fashion trends we went to the Alexander McQueen show at the Met. McQueen made a name for himself as an outrageous and talented designer, before taking his life year. We marveled at the metallic feathers, asymmetrical tartans, bondage buckles, balsa wood skirts and jakets, red lab-slide skirt, face-cloaking headpieces, fresh foliage, and more.

Had a fair and square meal at Haru sushi.




Then said goodbye and headed off into the wild blue yonder.
