http://dbassett.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Reflections on Meta-cognition - For Educators by Educators. This blog is for educators using the metacognitive framework - "nothing less than an internal dialogue with oneself. It is the process of bringing past experiences to a conscious level, analyzing them, and determining better ways to think and behave in the future" Roland Barth. I will be continuing to post SEL information on this website because metacognition is the basis for SEL. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. However, many teachers are still uncom...

Thank you for giving me this chance to improve myself and, in turn, the children I work with. 5 Responses to “Coming Clean”. 8221; I wouldn’t...

Wendy's Writing Project Blog. Thinking more on mentor texts. July 2, 2014. 8212; uiwpwendy @ 2:59 pm. I bring her into the classroom every year. And what about Lenore Look? Jacqueline Woodson is a must. I just need to figure out how to bring her to their level. I wonder what Wonders authors to consider. I can’t access that information online, and I sent my teachers manuals packing for the summer, so I’m not sure what the possibilities are there. Ask them what they notice. Ask them what we should do.

Today’s marathon pace: 4.225 | Wendy's Writing Project Blog
https://uiwpwendy.wordpress.com/2014/06/27/todays-marathon-pace-4-225
Wendy's Writing Project Blog. Today’s marathon pace: 4.225 June 27, 2014. 8212; uiwpwendy @ 2:24 pm. Go figure. Now before you get all judgmental about whether that’s a good pace or a horrible one, let me clarify that number means I wrote 4.23 words for each minute of the UIWP Writing Marathon 2014. It just wasn’t my day. I’m celebrating that I participated and that I finished. 8212;——-. First stop: Smith Hall then the bubbling fountain to write. Peace ruined by a bus stop– breaks and accelerations.

Wendy's Writing Project Blog. June 17, 2014. I set a goal to read a new children’s book each day of summer break (in addition to some books for pleasure and professional development).

The Watcher: Jane Goodall’s Life with the Chimps. Biggest, Strongest, Fastest. Randy Riley’s Really Big Hit. By Chris Van Dusen. By Mary Pope Osborne.
