\nI guess a few people have been wondering where I’ve been lately. Readers?! You mean people read this? Cool.\n<\/p>\n

\nI’ve been super busy of late helping to lead the National Writing Project in Vermont’s annual Summer Institute. I’ve had a great time with these folks and am learning a ton, much of which I hope to bring into my own classroom in the fall.
