Thinker's Notebook

"Between the pages of this book you will create.... write.... learn.... read... grow... think... dream... question... discuss... imagine! May it become a helpful resource for this years and years to come - sharing your growth, knowledge and deep thinking." Lesley Niboli Scheele This book was created by Lesley Scheele, M. Ed., a fifth grade teacher who lives and works in Sunapee, NH. It was made to support fifth and sixth grade students in a reader's and writer's workshop. It is the student workbook that can be used with any textbook (or even without if you have good resources.) With guidance students complete the key components of good reading and writing skills. The book then becomes a reference the student can use for years to come. "When I saw what Simone's book did for my son and his friends, I knew I had to do something similar for my students. It has been an amazing experience. Who would have thought that in less than 4 months, not only would I have a book out, but that it would already be incorporated into 2 schools and 8 classrooms. That's over 200 students in the towns where my family lives." Lesley Niboli Scheele, M. Ed.
