Learning from Others' End of the Year and Summer Blog Posts

I always love this time of year when I am able to see so many ideas of how teachers wrap up the school year, as well as reflections and goals for continual growth in the summer.

Today the guest post on Two Writing Teachers by Lindsay Reyes shares insights into the cycle of writing in her classroom and how she brings closure at the end of the year with a sense of independence and hope that students will continue on their own.

I am also very excited for Ruth's (of Two Writing Teachers) new website where she is going to focus on herself as a writer, as opposed to the teaching focus of TWT, as she explains here.

Sarah at The Reading Zone also recently posted about her summer professional reading goals.

These are just a few recent examples of many. One of the reasons that I love blogging so much is that it is such a powerful avenue for reflection and growth, as well as building a sense of community among professionals.
