This from skip. Discussion about the possibilities is welcome:
1. I would like to bring a few children’s books to those in the group that still haven’t received any. (not sure how to arrange that but I think it would be nice to use the NTPRS conference to distribute those – it would save postage 🙂
2. What do you think about having people in the group that are attending NTPRS bring samples of level 1, 2 and 3 writing so that we can compare/discuss, etc? Sometimes it is difficult to know what students should be able to “do” and I think it would be helpful to get an idea of what other students are doing… The idea would be to bring a range and compare that range of writing.
