Whether it is a PLC, book club, or grade-level meeting, we need to learn to be more transparent. We should not have to teach alone. <br />Teachers meet with me during their planning periods or on the day we all have to stay late each week. We just have to plan it! <br />Sandi<br /><i><b><a href="http://literacyminute.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Literacy Minute</a></b></i>SCTigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04022505143719110130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067208550306577321.post-4441796514399313242012-04-21T08:01:40.422-07:002012-04-21T08:01:40.422-07:00I know! :) How do we find time?

I just love this quote. As teachers, we all have to shut our doors and teach. We don't have the time, as you have stated, to talk to one another. I am the only one in my building doing my job, so I don't have a partner to bounce ideas with. But I thrive on that. I love to learn from one another and that keeps me excited for my job! This explosion of blogs has helped make that so much easier! <br />Lori<br /><b><a href="http://conversationsinliteracy.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Conversations in Literacy</a></b>Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14511344892381128298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067208550306577321.post-48482909524017909482012-04-21T07:44:09.581-07:002012-04-21T07:44:09.581-07:00Hi friend.

Next year, every Wednesday will be an early release so we can collaborate, and the district is also wanting us to be a PLC. (I might need your help figuring out exactly what that looks like. We don't know much about it yet, and it's a little fuzzy in my brain at the moment.) I love collaborating with bloggers like you! Thank you for another wonderful Saturday Saying.<br />❀ Tammy<br /><i><b><a href="http://foreverin1st.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Forever in First</a></b></i>Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18053983168084838303noreply@blogger.com
