Episode 33 - Why Students Love Doing The Write Stuff

With the first eight weeks of the school year now in the books, it seems likely that NCSD’s elementary students have chosen a favorite subject they love learning most about each day…but you may be surprised at the overwhelming answer!  Recess?  TAG- not it!  Social Studies?  That’s history!  These days, NCSD elementary students are falling head over highlighters for writing time!  In this episode, we learn why students can’t wait to put their pencils to paper, thanks to some energizing professional development for teachers and NCSD author-ities like Mt. Scott 3rd grade teacher Liz Maxwell, Oak Grove 1st grade teacher Rachel Wong, Emergent Literacy Specialist Kari Tunstill, and Early Learning Coordinator Jen Burkhart.
