I enjoyed today's discussion on high stakes and low stakes writing. I especially liked the ideas that we were given on how to incorporate low stakes writing into our classes. All of the ideas seemed like things that I would lke to try, but the one that stuck out the most to me was the microthemes. I like the idea of giving out post it notes to the students to record their thoughts and then posting them around the room and responding to them. This seems like an activity that would not seem like work to the students, but would seem like something fun.

I agree. I use a lot of post it notes in my class now and the kids love it. So, I will definitely incorporate this idea.
I have seen this done before but haven't used it myself. Gives me something to think about for next year.
We need to do this next year. I think it will be fun!
I also liked these ideas. I plan to use them next year too.
