“Growth happens by trying things we haven’t tried before. By making mistakes and trying again. We try to solve problems through our speaking and writing. We try again. Our teaching happens when we push, guide, and teach our students how to do that.” - Linda Rief “Writing is hard work. It is time-consuming. It is frightening. It is rewarding. It helps us pay attention to the world. Good writing lets writer and reader learn or think or feel something. Putting words on paper- or on the Internet- gives us voice- allows us to be hear. All the more reason to do it at every opportunity. And then to do it some more. - Linda Rief Our goal for all students
