One more thing...A. (my sweet daughter) seems to be writing the same piece over and over and not producing a lot of writing. Don't know what's going on here. She's capable. Wondering if it's the dynamic with me in the room...or wanting it to be perfect so she's a bit paralyzed. I don't interact a lot with her during ww b/c we try to avoid conferring with our own kids. Hmmm. She seems to stay with one piece for a very long time drawing lots of details...but writing LOTS of pieces (even if they are less developed) can sometimes be more beneficial...What to do?

Lorrie,
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about your A. Perhaps it is unfair that she is the only student in the class that has not conferenced with you. I know the TP's are not supposed to do that but you are really more of the teacher during WW. Perhaps she deserves that privelege once in awhile?

oops privilege....:)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Beth. I was thinking the same thing! I conferred with her on Tuesday and I think she had a better day. It is strange talking to my girl like a "teacher" instead of her mom.
