DESCRIPTORS Cultural Context; Elementary Secondary Education; English Instruction; Higher Education; *Language Arts; Problem Solving; *Reading Instruction; *Reading Writing Relationship; *Writing Instruction IDENTIFIERS *Collaborative Learning ABSTRACT This book, a series of essays developed at a working conference on the integration of reading and writing, surveys the historical, cultural, situational and social forces that keep the teaching of writing separate, skew the curriculum to favor reading over writing, and discourage development of pedagogies that integrate the language arts; examines the cognitive processes and strategies writers and readers use outside of school to develop and express their ideas; and discusses the challenge teachers face--to help students develop skills for reading and writing without isolating those skills from meaningful tasks and letting students forget the reasons for these activities. The book contains the following chapters: Chapter 1, "On Collaboration" (Anne Haas Dyson); Chapter 2, Introduction (James Moffett) and "A Sisyphean Task: Historical Perspectives on Writing and Reading Instruction" (Geraldine Joncich Clifford); Chapter 3, Introduction (Guadalupe Valdes) and "Writing and Reading in the Community" (Robert Gundlach and others); Chapter 4, Introduction (Sandra Murphy) and "The Problem-Solving Processes of Writers and Readers" (Ann S. Rosebery and others); Chapter 5, Introduction (Wallace Chafe) and "Writing and Reading Working Together" (Robert J. Tierney and others); Chapter 6, Introduction (Mary K. Healy) and "Writing-and-Reading in the Classroom" (James Britton); and Chapter 7, "The Writing-Reading Connection: Taking Off the Handcuffs" (Art Peterson).

Many contributed their ideas, their energy, and their time to this collaborative work. Sarah Freedman of the Center for the Study of Writing (CSW) and Jana Mason of the Center for the Study of Reading (CSR) organized the conference that first gathered together the people whose voices are heard in this book; they were ably assisted by Jane Powell (CSR) and Sandra Murphy (CSW). The conference participants, many of whom became authors of chapters and prefaces, talked, read, and wrote about talking, writing, and reading with interest and enthusiasm. In the months following the conference, the chapter authors and I exchanged letters, notes, memos, andidrafts as the book envisioned at the conference began to take form. As editor, I was fortunate to work with authors who themselves shared in the vision of the bookand who were good-humored when editor and author seemed to be looking in different directions. I was equally fortunate to have editorial assistants, who read and talked through the chapters with me, hunted down missing references, and carefully checked each comma and period. Jim Slagel and Mark McCarvel worked with me almost from the beginning. Jeff Maxson helped in the final months, providing good humor and careful proofing and reproofing of the longest bibliography either of us had ever seen. Finally, Carol Heller, whose gifts as writer and editor are humbling, edited my own chapter and helped with the final cleaning up. Throughout the months of drafting and redrafting, the CSW staff worked through an almost daily deluge of papers to be typed and retyped, always with a smile. I thank Lynnette Harry, Trish Cascardi, and Ernie Grafe. vii Conference Participants Mary Sue Ammon, Department of Educational Psychology, School of Education, University of California, Berkeley Paul Ammon, Department of Educational Psychology, School of Ed- ucation, University of California, Berkeley James Britton, London, England Bertram (Chip) Bruce, Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Cambridge, Mas- sachusetts Robert Calfee, School of Education, Stanford University Rebekah Caplan, University of California, Berkeley Wallace Chafe, Department of Linguistics, University of California, Santa Barbara Fran Claggett, Alameda High School, Alameda, California Geraldine Clifford, Educational Foundations, School of Education, University of California,

The initial objective was the discovery cf primary materials from the period to fill a gap in the history of American educational thought and practice. Extensive searching cf unpublished and uncatalogued library holdings, mainly those of major public and university libraries, yielded a significant quantity of primary documents for this bibliography. The historical and contemporary works, comprising approximately 4,500 primary and secondary educational resources with some surveying the cultural setting of educational thinking in this period, are organized around 26 topics and 109 subtopics with cross-references. Among the educational issues covered by the cited materials are: public vs. private; coed vs. separate; academic freedom, teacher education; teaching and learning theory; and, equality of educational opportunity. In addition to historical surveys and other secondary materials, primary documents include: government documents, books, journals, newspapers, and speeches.

Dear Mom and Dad: I imagine you are wondering already where I got this exta thin paper. Well it’s wrting paper that the Japanese use. The envelope is the kind of envelope they use too. After you finish reading this, have Genevieve take it to school and show Miss Fultz and the rest of the faculty who are interested in such things. It’s never warm enough to go outside without your coats on, and there is snow on the ground practically all the time. In the summer you can easily get a sunburn but you still have to wear your coat. We live in a tent which is boarded up on all four sides. There is no window in the tent but we have electric lights. We have a little coal stove in the middle of the tent which furnishes plenty of heat. The dance band I’m in plays at different places all over the island once a night and sometimes twice a night. Besides playing in the band, we all are on a working party every morning. There is a show on every night at the theatre but they are all the shows which we have seen in the states; although its something to pass the time away.

  • Letter from Andover Head, John Palfrey Phillips Academy 180 Main
    Letter from Andover Head, John Palfrey January 12, 2018 Phillips Dear members of the Andover community, Academy As we’ve seen in our news feeds and in our own communities, the troubling reality of sexual misconduct and harassment is part of an 180 Main Street important national dialog. Many who have suffered silently are finding strength in their collective voices. Andover, Massachusetts Andover has reckoned with its own past, which, at times, has been 01810 tarnished by unacceptable behavior. We’ve pledged to address our history proactively—by supporting those who have been affected, learning from past mistakes, and working to create a campus culture built on trust and respect, education and support. I write today with an update on our progress and an invitation for all voices to be heard. As we have shared in previous letters, our highest priority is the safety and well-being of our students. We weave health and wellness initiatives throughout academic and residential experiences and develop policies and practices to guide students and adults with our students’ best interests in mind. We continue to ask ourselves: What are the social, emotional, and societal pressures facing today’s teenagers? Do our resources and programs effectively connect to this broader worldview? Are we fostering a culture that will root out those who would do harm to others? Excellence permeates all that we do at Andover, from academic endeavors to personal and professional development. Excellence also is the premise upon which we will continue to approach student health and wellness programming. New and ongoing campus initiatives As part of our efforts to promote healthy relationships and a culture of consent, we recently hosted a visit by The Arts Effect Theater Company of New York City.

Miss Tempe sat down in her rocking chair with a keen sense of relief. She sat there with her hands lying supinely upon her lap just as she had dropped them. The rioting flames of the resinous pine revealed the gray-streaked hair, drawn away tightly from the thin temples, the high Roman nose, the pale straight lips. She thought of Emma, the child whom she had taken from her dying sister, whom she had brought up to work because of necessity. She had to-day taken the vows of matrimony, and with Miss Tempe’s blessings had departed for her home out West. She felt lonely. Just then a sudden gust shook the loose sash.
