Close to 45 years experience in education as a student, a high school English teacher, Reading & Writing Center director, literacy consultant, and curriculum writer. I love learning and working with students of all ages. I currently live in Orlando, Florida and teach English at Cypress Creek High School.

Portable Teacher
Welcome to my teaching blog! Portable-Teacher reflects what I'm doing or thinking about doing in the classroom. I started the blog with a few teaching friends, who occasionally post to it. We envisioned it as a collaborative space where we could share and engage in conversation about our practice.

I use the blog to remember and reflect on my teaching as well as a place to share ideas or tools I've found helpful. I would like the blog to push teachers and others to question, imagine and or reflect on their own practice.

MadWords Now
Place for my postings/assignments for students. Also, a forum for my students (and former students) to exchange ideas. Maybe the best idea I have ever had in teaching.
