I have bid on Debbie Miller's "Reading with Meaning", Ellen
Oliver's "Mosaic of Thought" and Fletcher's "Craft Lessons" on

I enjoyed reading your response, as we have alot in commom! I

same resources you are. I had the opportunity to attend a PEBC
conference in Denver a few years back, which has greatly
enriched my teaching of literacy. I have been here almost...See More
