  9. Packet – R2The writing process approach requires a radically different pace than we are used to in our schools. But time is our scarcest resource. Teachers often ask me, “How do I squeeze writing in on top of everything else?” My suggestion is simple: Don’t. Instead of shoehorning one more thing into the crowded curriculum, I suggest that we each take a good, hard look at our school day to determine what is not longer needed there. My husband & I recently moved from one Connecticut town to another, and the thing that surprised me most about the move was the amount of junk we had accumulated. We took fifteen carloads of trash to the dump. Sometimes I think that if we, as teachers, want to move on, we need to take carloads of curricula to the dump. It is only by cleaning out some old things that we can give time and space to new ones.~Lucy Calkins
