I'm already seeing how hard it will be to keep up with my site and follow the sites of others. I I use this as a place to try on ideas I'll be more inclined to post. It was good seeing Deb at the Farmers' market today and having a chance to talk about class, a stolen wallet and Tulip poplar trees.
I am feeling good about the possibilities of using the tools we explored in class to investigate, integrate, explore and choose curriculum.
I was disappointed to go back to the "Two Women who Write " blog and find it had closed discussion on the topic of 'Story Matters Here' before anyone had a chance to respond to my thinking. I still can use their blog for ideas about writing. They referred to a name and system I can't recall at this moment the way I refer to Botels' system of reading together, reading alone writing together and alone and working on language and structure. I wonder if our school has, "Bringing Words to Life: Robust Vocabulary Instruction"?
Just like I have to meet students where they are I need ot allow myself to do the same for myself. I need to work from my areas of expertise, comfort and structure as I return to a self-contained sixth grade.
I think i've leared to link in this blog....
