I just had one of the most powerful professional learning experiences I’ve had in a long time. Kath Murdoch, Megan Holmstrom and I had the rare opportunity to watch each other teach; then debriefed our genuine curiosity about children’s thinking and how we translate that into responsive actions.

I had the privilege of talking with Melissa Morrison about Language Composition on her podcast, Getting Student's to Write! It comes out on October 21. We had a great conversation about this important topic and how it pertains to children's writing.

I’m fascinated by how children compose so much more language than what is represented on the page. Watch a clip of a child reading a book with hearts and scribble writing-showing her amazing lang comp and knowledge of how books sound.

I’m continually puzzled by programs that make encoding a prerequisite for composing. Instead, we should take a parallel approach where we teach composition and conventions next to each other. Without this we miss the compositional thinking of young children when they are making books.

I am very passionate about my Language Composition work and it is awesome to now have a website to house the research! Please visit the site and join the mailing list! This week's new video was a writing conference with Naomi, a preschooler. Fascinating! Enjoy!

Talking about and even experiencing inquiry in workshops is powerful but there is something special about the opportunity to be ‘in the room where it happens’ – to observe educators bring an inquiry stance to their teaching

Check out the latest clip on languagecomp.com/oral-rehears... I showed this clip at a conference recently. It’s the clip that got us thinking about children orally rehearsing in a genre after they have been immersed in the language of that genre. Be sure to sign up for the mailing list!
