Blowing the examples up & being able to 'interact' with the pieces is so valuable. Most of what I do is make copies for everyone. It is a challenge to navigate different classrooms. Thanks for the idea.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058349215223700929.post-49431013795629926822011-03-11T14:29:15.087-05:002011-03-11T14:29:15.087-05:00This is i a great idea.

What a great way to have a "wall" to support your examples. It is always a challenge to go into someone's class and need to post a page (or more) for the students to see.

I find the more examples I have for students, the better their own writing--or speeches--tend to be.<br /><br />By the way, Love your "I am From" poem. The original is a poem I use with creative writing students who don't think they can write poetry. Once they are done, they are pretty proud of their efforts!Deb Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00861392500601183208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058349215223700929.post-6206266493224745232011-03-11T07:28:08.246-05:002011-03-11T07:28:08.246-05:00Bravo!

It's refreshing to know it's still making an impact!<br />BonnieBonnie Khttp://blkdrama.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058349215223700929.post-45205550689642142172011-03-11T06:50:04.291-05:002011-03-11T06:50:04.291-05:00I agree with Kevin.

I too, am a techie but my young students need to see examples right in front of them as well as on the "big screen".Wanda Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345098241488452543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058349215223700929.post-58093061274447709672011-03-11T05:49:08.909-05:002011-03-11T05:49:08.909-05:00I like that you can leave things behind because we...I like that you can leave things behind because we all know kids will check them out, but maybe on their own time (and not always when we expect). There's still a lot to be said for low-tech (even from a high-tech advocate like myself)<br />KevinKevin Hodgsonhttp://dogtrax.edublogs.org/noreply@blogger.com
