But visiting classes, discussing learning and co-planning lessons has opened up a whole new world of content-knowledge. Content I would have never spent time thinking about had I stayed in room 218, doing the 'Anthem' and 'Hamlet' thing.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and a new-found sense of empathy has surfaced. Being in classes and considering the amount of work students have to do in order to be successful makes me a lot more understanding about our students' lives.Ken Rodoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16791763810744207118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1290718779979689335.post-62190089500105345642008-02-08T04:14:00.000-08:002008-02-08T04:14:00.000-08:00As impressed as I am with this Carle influenced ta...As impressed as I am with this Carle influenced tale, I will respectfully resist the urge to blatantly plagiarise your writing. It does take a while to look one's head up from the screen and see what's happening around their own life. Me, I focussed so much on the web, ICT and the whole technology deal that I've found myself well behind in progressive literacy pedagogy and playing catch up in coming to grips with literacy blocks, guided reading and literature circles. Delving back into that sort of stuff opens my eyes somewhat to why many of my colleagues don't have time for "all that internet stuff."Graham Wegnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17303319509348129453noreply@blogger.com
