I am very discouraged right now. It seems like Building
Blocks has almost slipped into oblivion! The BB chatboard
is as good as inactive, maybe 1-2 posts a week. And there
is little or no mention of BB on any of the 4 blocks
websites. I have used BB for several years now, I won all
the books and have read them several times, but at times
(like right now!!) I need a little inspiration, so I go
looking. Finding stuff on the web always gives me new
ideas & a little wind in my sails, but it seems like what
used to be out there about BB is gone, and nothing new is
taking its place.

Is there something going on with BB that I am unaware of?
Do I need to start searching for a new literacy framework
to use that has support available? I love BB, but it sure
seems like it is becoming a little extinct.

Please let me know if you know anything about this!

Thanks!
Stephanie:)

Some districts in Fl have money to invest in programs and
materials. I have been trying to figure this thing out and have
bought several of the books thinking that each one would give
more insight than the next. Not so. How do you get acquainted
with this program. This works really well for elementary, but <...See More
