Jacob and Pam want to begin by thanking you for your support!

In this bonus episode Jacob and Pam explain why they use two notebooks, a Craft Book and a Draft Book.

Pam begins by sharing a workshop experience where she had to reset and restart the workshop. She also explains how she uses two notebooks to help clarify for the students when to study and when to apply the lessons that occur in her Reading and Writing Workshop.

Jacob reflects upon the purpose of why he uses two notebooks.  He explains how ownership plays a role. Jacob highlights the importance of putting students first. When he did this, it helped him determine why he uses two notebooks.
