Many of the teachers that I work with will tell you, I've been selling the 'Slice of Life' challenge since January. You see I didn't want to 'Slice' alone again. I wanted others to feel the power and failure I found as I went through daily slicing.Writing everyday requires me to dig deep, slow down, and ponder what I can turn into something interesting for others to read. All of which are challenging for me to do during my day.
I'm not sure what I will write about during this challenge, I'm currently in graduate school and learning about New Literacies vs new literacies. Yes, they are different. Then there is always my Universal Design for Learning class, which I find absolutely fascinating and could spend my entire day designing curriculum that includes as many learners as possible. I'm sure I could keep you entertained with my journey through 'Statistics & Research Methods' course. (Who just went to sleep? Me too)
I could keep you in stitches with the antics of my kids and three dogs, but that might be to cliche.
Maybe I could dazzle you with how I'm a teacher who moonlights as a technology integrator, getting adults to see curriculum through a technology lens.
I've gotta find a way to entertain and be interesting. I guess I gotta slow down and think about you, because you are important. Yes, that's right you are my audience.
Here's to 30 more days of less mundane writing.
Betsy told me you had trouble linking up yesterday. Please shoot both of us an email today (3/2) after you link up so we can make sure your link goes live.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS!
Thanks Stacey and Betsy, I will keep you posted.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid to ask about New Literacies vs. new literacies... Design for Learning sounds cool, although after two stats courses, I might run away screaming from that! Sounds like you have a lot to choose from. As one of those adults you've been helping, I can assure you we all appreciate your efforts!
