Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] Reading Workshop and/or Cafe model
Hi Norma, I am a literacy coach in WA state and we are moving to a "balanced
literacy model" which includes readers workshop and daily five/CAFE. I am
going to a class this AM- but can email more info later. Tami

Our district was slowing inching towards implementing a Reading Workshop
model (ala Calkins) and have now shifted gears towards the Cafe model. I
have questions for anyone who's familiar with both. How do you see them
meshing? What are the advantages of the Cafe over the RW model? Are there
any? Do you have any advice for us?
I guess my concerns are that the Cafe model looks great in helping with
the management piece but is what I would consider to be step 2 in this whole
process. We need to implement the model (students reading on their own
level rather than drag the class thru one novel) before teachers have
something to manage.
Please share any insight you all have into this!
Thanks!

An old man once said, "There comes a time in your life, when you walk away
from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with
people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the
people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short
to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is
living."
