“I've received your book! Thank you so much for signing it. You have impacted my teaching and learning so much! I started using ‘Reading Power’ in my first year and discovered ‘Writing Power’ shortly after. I still use the writing stages for our projects and the kids move cedar magnets with their names on them to show what stage they are at. I've also done lots of your writing projects, and recently we've been focusing on storytelling. We just completed a class book of their writing for Visualizing a character, and a class book of their moral stories (which I do every year with my class).”
