Effective, intentional teaching begins with a strong set of beliefs, but even the best teachers -- including author Debbie Miller -- struggle to make sure that their classroom practice consistently reflects their core convictions. In Teaching with Intention: Defining Beliefs, Aligning Practice, Taking Action, K-5, Miller defines her actions to ensure that children are the true beneficiaries of her teaching. As Peter Johnston writes, Through this book we have Debbie's teaching mind on loan. She engages us in the details of a teaching life from inside her mind, showing the thinking behind her teaching and the consequences of her actions.Teaching with Intention brings us into classrooms of teachers and children Miller has met over the last five years in her work as a literacy consultant. From setting up the classroom environment to the intentional use of language, from comprehension instruction to lesson design, Miller is explicit about what she does and why. At the same time, she encourages teachers to develop their own belief statements concerning teaching and learning and includes key questions to guide them in this important process.In an environment where the handing down of scripted programs and foolproof curricula is increasingly the norm, Teaching with Intention offers a compelling reminder that truly transformative teaching is built from the ground up, and is rebuilt every year, by every teacher, in every classroom, with every new group of students.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Teaching with Intention is recommended for both teachers and teacher educators who want to work through the age-old theory-versus-practice struggle. Indeed, if Miller's story and classroom experiences are read and reflected on with the purpose of finding one's own solution to this ongoing dilemma, true teaching with intention might result." - Education Review

About the Author

Debbie has been a national consultant since 2000, but still has those back to school dreams in the fall. After playing school in the basement of her childhood home in Lititz, Pennsylvania, she earned her bachelor's and master's degrees in education from Millersville University and Temple University and spent the next four decades as an educator. She's worked as a classroom teacher, migrant education teacher, Title I reading teacher, and literacy coach in Pre-K through grade 10 in diverse public school settings. Her love of teaching stems from her love of learning. I have always loved learning. Becoming a teacher was a way I could share that love of learning with children and eventually, with adults. A big part of her learning is listening to teachers and their professional development needs. When I work with teachers, I try to understand their needs by finding out what they know and listening to their questions. Then I begin where they are and work with them to help them take the next steps toward where they (and/or their school systems) want (them) to be. I believe in professional reading and professional learning communities, and support teachers in their quest to best meet the needs of all students in their classrooms. Debbie's ideas for her books also come from her work with teachers. She listens for frequently asked questions, patterns, teachers' needs, and keeps a writer's notebook to collect ideas, thoughts, and notes. Often, the old joke comes to mind: how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. That's how I write: Bit by bit, on planes, in hotel rooms, in my office on a rare day. Teachers' questions and comments spur me on through my daily, ongoing work in classrooms, which sustains my craft. Debbie's family has changed and grown in recent years. Her son, Jon, and daughter, Jessica, are both married, and she now has a granddaughter, Chloe, with another on the way. Debbie's husband, Tom, passed away in 2012.

I love the style of Debbie Miller's writing

This book is a must have for every teacher!! This book changed the way I teach. I love the style of Debbie Miller's writing. Reading this book felt like sitting down with a colleague over coffee. I also love that she gives you peeks inside a real classroom. She crafts the words so well that I can picture myself there right alongside her and she visits the classrooms and shares real teaching at its best. Thank you Debbie Miller for shaping me into the teacher that I am today. This book paired with Reading With Meaning is the best PD ever!!!!

MUST read this!!!

This book is another pure gold resource from Debbie Miller. Veteran teachers will be challenged to think about why and how they teach. New teachers will learn from THE master as she gently teaches her readers. The thoughts in this book will help ALL teachers form their own personal vision for Why they teach, How they should teach, and What they should teach. The advice and wisdom will help you become a totally effective and loved teacher. Pour the coffee, cozy up on the couch and enjoy the conversation with an old friend. You will not be disappointed while you savor each word.

This book was fabulous and had me nodding and smiling as I read. It has re-confirmed my personal beliefs and philosophy of the wonderful and meaningful things CAN happen in classrooms. A great summer holiday read to refresh my spirit for a new year where children are learning to learn rather than superficially regurgitating facts.

Love it!

Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2009

Verified Purchase

I ordered this book because the primary teachers at our school decided we needed to be more consistent with teaching vocabulary. We started a book club and decided to read Reading With Meaning. As I was ordering that book I saw this book and ordered it. I've been teaching for 20 years and this book got me to thinking about a different way to get my kids excited about thinking of our classroom as being part of a community. I love the ideas for using manners and modeling the type of behavior and thinking I want to see in our classroom.
Can't wait to try it!

Best Book Ever!

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2011

Verified Purchase

This book has tremendous ideas that you could put to use right in the classroom immediately. I am a third grade teacher and I can use these ideas with just a little adaptation here and there. This book has lessons you could start with day 1. It is also so easy to read. Not a book that you dread picking up, but one that you can't put down. I am never getting rid of my copy. I will hold on to it for my entire teaching career.

Love Debbie Miller!!!!

Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2016

Verified Purchase

I highly recommend this book. In a day where children are involved with high-stakes testing, Debbie Miller teaches authentic teaching where children discover for themselves what kind of readers they are through independent reading and practicing fun- engaging comprehension activities that will make children tune into their reading practices. KIDS NEED TO FOCUS ON THESE KINDS OF READING COMPREHENSION STRATEGIES INSTEAD OF LEARNING STUFF THAT WILL BE ON HIGH-STAKES TESTS!!!!!

Good follow up to Reading With Meaning

Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2010

Verified Purchase

Written in Debbie Miller's accessible and enjoyable writing style, just like Reading With Meaning, this book expands on some of her ideas from her previous book. This book is based on Debbie's life outside the classroom as a mentor to other teachers. I would recommend Reading With Meaning before reading this book.

A great read and tool to help your teaching be intentional. Helped me realize I need to show my thinking and not just assume students can follow it.
