      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

      We are indebted to all of the mentors, teachers, and students who have shaped our thinking over the course of our teaching careers. In particular, we are grateful for the partnership and collaborations we have enjoyed with the Stevenson High School science department. It is their commitment to literacy within our professional learning community that is the foundation for adapting and creating many of the strategies in this book. Thanks go out to science director Steve Wood and teachers Sara Cahill, Kellie Dean, Brett Erdmann, Caroline Humes, Amy Inselberger, Kim Lubecke, Abbie Lueken, Christine Pfaffinger, Deanna Warkins, and Tommy Wolfe. Your passion, expertise, inspiration, and support have been invaluable.

      Thank you to our Stevenson and Niles North High School colleagues on our academic literacy teams. At Stevenson, Christina Anker, Jim Barnabee, and Nicole Fuller all contributed to several reading and writing strategies in this book. At Niles North, all teachers who have served on our reading collaborative teams have truly modeled the hard work of collaboration as well as reflective and impactful teaching.

      Thank you to D219 Niles Township High Schools’ literacy coaches and specialists Stephanie Iafrate, Ellen Foley, Christine Mbah, and Mary Richards. Your commitment to fostering a culture of literacy at D219 has tremendously impacted this important body of work.

      We also thank the literacy specialists, coaches, and teachers from Downers Grove North High School and the Chicago Area Literacy Leaders (CALL) group for sharing their expertise and inspiring the important literacy work and collaborations we engage in daily.

      Thank you to the administrative leaders at Stevenson and Niles North for their encouragement and support. By prioritizing literacy in our schools, they have allowed our work to grow and inspire our school communities.

      Finally, a very special thanks goes out to Mark Onuscheck, director of curriculum, instruction, and assessment at Stevenson High School, whose compassion, humor, inspiration, guidance, and friendship motivate and inspire us regularly. Without his steady leadership, there would be no book to write.
