Joy - I appreciate your kind words! It is so much fun hearing from people
the paths they have taken. Pat has been a blessing in my life. I don't
know if you have read Pat's and my newest book, Beyond Retelling Toward
Higher Level Thinking and Big Ideas, by Cunningham and Smith, published by
Pearson, Allyn and Bacon. It is a great comprehension teaching tool that
many teachers have found helpful.

Deb,
The Four Blocks series of books is what led me to MOT, via Debbie Miller's
Reading With Meaning. Although I now teach fourth grade, many of the
procedures, strategies, and philosophies still thread their way through my
lessons every day.
(BTW, Deb, your book led me to Lucy Calkins and the world of writing
workshop. I can't imagine teaching any other way now!)
