One of our professional development (PD) focuses this year is around writing. We are very fortunate to be partnering with Jaime Bailey from the assessment office to support us with our writing work this year. We began in August during our professional development week. At that time we identified the five elements that are important for good writers to understand and use; clarity, style/voice, audience/purpose, organization, and conventions. Last Friday we continued with this work by building a writing continuum across all of our grade levels. This was hard but powerful work. Teachers collaborated in both vertical and horizontal teams and engaged in very productive conversations. Our next task is to use this continuum to create grade level rubrics. Again I want to thank you for your support and helping Timber Trail be the school, "Where Hearts and Minds Connect." ![]() Michele Radke Principal
