Lit Nerd Heaven
I'm a proud lit nerd. When I get to see literacy "celebrities" at conferences, I am overjoyed. When Lucy Calkins asked to skip me in the lunch line and then Carl Anderson stepped on my foot at NCTE, I was beside myself with excitement. Today I was in lit nerd heaven.
It was almost too much for this lit nerd to handle!
I got to spend the day with Stephanie Harvey!!!
Not just spend the day listening to her at a conference, but I got to spend the day walking through classrooms in our district with her. I got to spend the day reflecting on practices, picking her brain, and attempting to soak in every word she said.
Unfortunately, my only picture with Steph Harvey and I just barely squeezed in the edge of it! |
Way better than the PD I endured on Monday! Glad you had a close encounter of one of our lit-lebrities! Jealous!

ReplyDeleteWow! What a great day!
ReplyDeleteWow! That sounds amazing. I hope you learned a ton!
ReplyDeleteLove your term lit nerd. I have fun memories with colleagues where we were starstruck by certain literacy leaders too. I am sure that you will be reflecting on this day and the insight for quite some time.
