June 19-Thursday

I enjoyed today's class discussions. I liked hearing about everyone else's paper ideas. I think that it sparked a lot of neat class talks. I think that this helps to get everyone involved.

Speaking of that, I also liked the ideas that were offered for low stakes writing...the microthemes and reading responses. I think that those were great ideas for getting people pulled into the class when they are more comfortable to set back and watch. I am planning on using those in my classroom next year. My students would really benefit from them. I am hoping to use a lot more writing in my classroom next year and I think that these ideas would be really helpful for me.

I am also looking forward to incorporating these new writing ideas in my room next year.

I know that have great success next year in incoporating these ideas into your writing. Don't forget that I have some extra notebooks and things that you can use if you want them.
