Sankalpa - Day 3


Today, I continued trying to spend time doing what I really want to do.  To that end, I ran for awhile, I read for awhile, and I played with the kids for awhile.  I'm feeling really deliberate, especially about my decision to play football at the park. 

Tomorrow, we're headed home to Minnesota where it's so frigid that the governor -the venerable Mark Dayton - has already canceled school for Monday.  Luckily, I planned ahead for the trip by buying a book of Sudokus and a Running Times magazine.  I also have two books I'm working on, both important and exciting.  First is Claudette Colvin: Twice Toward Justice by Phillip Hoose.  Next is World Class Learners by Yong Zhao.  I've read three non-fictions on this trip, selections I've made deliberately to help me with my Book Bingo.

Brace yourself with deliberateness for the return home.

Very impressed with the reading. And the Corkscrew photo. And the intentionality. Right now I'm reading a book called More than Guided Reading with Judith. It's about teaching reading to littles. V. good. It's by Cathy Mere. I follow her on twitter. World Class REaders. I'll have to look into that.

More than Guided Reading. Sounds really good. I want to learn more about teaching the littles.
