Jen Wagner's power point on using Wordle may be the best find you've passed along to me in the past few months! I've sent it on to several colleagues. I am excited to expand my use of wordle and let my kids loose with it in the lab next year. Thanks!

Angela, I loved the picture that Armano's son posted with this. It presented a powerful point to me on "perspective." How important it is that we respect each child's perspective (thinking) and then be ready to listen to them and allow them to share in the conversation.

What a timely article, Angela. I've been thinking you're a mind reader. Thanks for the jog and great title recommendation.

Angela,
I love the post on JJL. The pic of your niece drew me in, the article spoke to my heart of issues we currently face, and the conversation following it sang of real life thinking. Thanks!

Enjoyed the conversation between two great teachers! I worry our students are not reading enough as well. I have found some, when offered a choice, are sticking to mediocre because it's easier. Glad to hear your comments and look forward to more on this topic.

Wow! What an inspiration and reminder for why we do what we do. Thanks for passing Dalton on, Angela.
