Hey Everyone,
I just want to take a moment in front of all of you and say, “Let’s celebrate” with my mom;
Vickie Hedrick.
It’s official, she is now a published AUTHOR!!!!!!
And let’s not just celebrate that she is a published author, but as well, let’s celebrate the many years she spent in the classroom teaching and training teachers that led to this!
Check out her book here: http://www.asq.org/quality-press/display-item/index.html?item=H1389&xvl=76097805
Way to go mom! I am so proud of your hard work! I am your biggest fan!!!!!! And seriously, thanks for teaching that class of kindergarteners back in 1979-1980. You will never know what an impact you had on my life as my first teacher!!!!!
Blessings!

ASQ: Continuous Improvement in the Language Arts Classroom
Continuous Improvement in the Language Arts Classroom
Vickie HedrickThis latest entry in the Continuous Improvement in the Classroom series describes the first-hand experience of learning how to build a system, put processes into place, and use tools to make sure our processes are effective and efficient. It will work with any program and with any way that you already teach. Rather than creating new work, it shows how to continuously improve what you are already doing. It is about judging if there are things that you do that need to be abandoned. It is about the thinking you do before you begin the work. It is about training the workers in order that they know how the system works and feel confident about being able to succeed in your system.
If you have ever wondered what it is that teacher down the hall is doing that helps him or her figure out how to get such great results, it is not the programs they put into place but how they figures out what is best for her classroom and her students. Author Vickie Hedrick describes the things she and her students worked on and the processes they put into place to build a system where everyone has the opportunity for greatness.
