E39 | Early Writing Standards in the Common Core Era with Dr. Laura Tortorelli

Thanks for a great 2022! Looking forward to TLP in 2023! In this episode, I talk about alignment between preschool writing standards and early elementary writing standards in state that adopted the Common Core. My guest is Laura Tortorelli who is an assistant professor in the Department of Teacher Education at Michigan State University. Highlights include insight into how preschool are early writing standards are organized, what practices these standards emphasize, and what it all means for instruction. Reference: Tortorelli, L.
