Seems like there's quite a few of us that have moved from primary to intermediate this year. I taught 2nd for 12 years and now am in 5th. Feel free to email me off list as well and we can share ideas together if you'd like.
For writing ideas and lesson outlines, I would HIGHLY recommend a book that I found as a result of this list. "Notebook Know-How" by Aimee Buckner. Also, the book I read to the class today (first day of school), just to remind them how FUN reading can be, is "Skippyjon Jones," a picture book, by Judy Schachner. Absolutely hilarious! Finally, don't forget all of the reading & writing resources available to print and use immediately from Beth Newingham's website. There's a link to her page at http://www.mrstg.com/teacher_links.htm. I spent a lot of time on her site this summer just trying to look at her stuff and THINK about how I wanted my reading and writing workshop time to go.
