Sing that to the tune of "Going to the Chapel" and it makes perfect sense. I've been singing it all week. Good luck getting that little tune out of your head.
My song was accurate.. in a couple of hours I'm headed to the Ballpark Hilton by the St. Louis Arch to attend the WLU Summer Institute. The next three days are jam packed with literacy infused activities and professional development sessions. The conference is sponsored by the National Council of Teachers of English. I've jotted down which sessions I want to attend and I will get to see three of my professors from college!! I'm also excited about that. Let's face it, I'm just excited for everything. Although, this means I can't sleep in until 10:00 for the next couple of days.
What kind of professional development are your participating in this summer? this year? Do share!
Does Pinterest count? :)
I had not seen that E Card yet!! It may be my new favorite!

Hi Holly!! I consider reading other blogs a great source of PD! :)
DeleteI couldn’t help but think that we do that in libraries, too. Anytime we do an unplanned search in a class, and explain what we’re looking at and how we’re interpreting it, the students are getting a chance to see what we’re thinking.

So before I opened the book I began to think about my own transformation as teacher in my classroom over my 30 year career as an English/Drama teacher.
