Well, I did this last night and I guess I'll do it again. Thanks for being a great classroom yesterday. I really loved your "student like" questions. I loved your poems. I challenge you to share your poem with six people. You are definitely a creative bunch and I am looking forward to moving onward and upward.
I am concerned about the not so concrete directions. I know that it is to be to get us to think but I do not like putting a lot of time into my writing and not know if I am writing the right thing.
Robin I am with you in the reading with the dictionary by my side.

Like I said- I think the non-concrete nature is the whole point. If we are given too many parameters to work within it will squelch the creativity- reflexivity. I think that our teaching should provide opportunities for the children to THINK- I know, they don't like it either!
ReplyDeleteWho gets to say what's "right" at this level in our careers?
ReplyDelete"Better judgments," maybe . . . but the person telling me better have a strong ethos and lots of good reasons for thinking so! :-)
