Join Greg, Jenny, and author Jon Barth as they dig into the power of journaling. In this episode you will hear powerful stories of impact from journaling as well as tips and strategies to support you along the way. Journaling is far more than simply writing words - this is a reflective practice. Check out Jon's books and resources at www.jonbarthbooks.com

Join Greg and Jenny as they discuss their favorite parts of the guided reading series. This concludes the official series but we will continue to drop shows with a literacy focus along with many other topics. This show also includes the first song we have ever recorded. Enjoy!

Join Jenny and Greg as they sit down with Jan Richardson author of "The Next Step Forward in Guided Reading" book. A great conversation about guided reading, fluency, and the important role that guided reading plays in a child's education. www.iccpodcast.com

We have spent a lot of time talking about what is happening at the reading table during guided reading. But, what do the rest of the kids do? Well you are in luck. In this episode of the series we dive into centers/stations and talk about how to connect them to guided reading and other areas. Enjoy! www.iccpodcast.com

One of the greatest parts of Jan Richardson's model of guided reading is that it includes plenty of comprehension instruction. Join Jenny, Greg, and Tiffany Shekleton a 2nd grade teacher at Epworth Elementary as they talk comprehension. Although heavily focused on Jan Richardson's Next Step Forward book there are certainly plenty of nuggets of information for all spread throughout. www.iccpodcast.com

Meeting people where they are is key to teaching and leadership. Join Greg in this minicast as he recounts a story about Thomas the Train and his son Caleb that taught him this lesson. Check out www.iccpodcast.com for more content from the ICCpodcast team.

What do you do when kids no longer need word work, decoding, and phonics... do they just graduate from Guided Reading? No not at all they move into fluent lessons and double down on vocab and comprehension. Join Jenny and Greg as they continue the "How Guided Reading Works" series.

Join Jenny and Greg as they dive into and discuss the work horse of the guided reading lessons. Transitional readers could start at 1st grade and go well past 4th. This is also where we begin to see three day lessons with more time dedicated to the writing process.

Growth mindset could very well be one of the biggest buzz words in education at this point. For the past several years Jenny and Greg have explored what it looks like to bring the concept of a growth mindset into school. Join them as they talk about five key components to make this more than a catch phrase. This was also our first live show so enjoy! Finally, we discuss GRIT stations which are group challenges kids work on. We failed to mention that in the show.
