I don't have time to confer with all my students!

How many times have I heard that as a coach?  Let's just say if I had a dollar for every time I heard a teacher say they don't have time to confer with all their students, I could take a lovely little vacation.  So, anytime I learn a tip on managing time, I like to share.

This week, Shana Frazin from TC, shared a little formula for thinking about conferences during writing.

It makes so much sense and is freeing for teachers!  You're still meeting with students two times a week just not always in individual conferences.  This allows you to maximize instruction and allows students plenty of time for writing.  Thanks for sharing, Shana!
