I would like to thank the following individuals who worked tirelessly during the fall of 2014 to explore the key components of literacy instruction together and then create a new vision and design for our Changing Results for Young Readers 2015 in-service series. Throughout the process, the team modelled many important aspects of the CR4YR initiative, including collaboration, a stance of teacher inquiry, formative peer assessment and feedback, and the understanding that true teaching is less about telling than it is aboutinviting learners to wonder and explore possibilities.
