Turkey Day
As we gear up for the holiday season, it does seem appropriate and right to have a day to step back and reflect on the things for which we are thankful and lucky. I'm lucky to have had a year of incredible learning and career growth, and to have made connections with so many old and new colleagues. I'm blessed with a healthy and happy family who are just fun to be around and spend time with. I'm extremely lucky to have great friends all around me, and a great support network.
Thanks.
Thanks.

New Book Idea
I think that Seamus and I are going to write a book together about the funny experiences he's had with his baby sister. We're thinking of calling it "Meatballs Don't Make Very Good Hats."

Thing 8
As I was looking around at the education wiki spaces, I really did discover some exciting stuff. In the "Code Blue" 6th grade project, the links that the kids gathered for the body systems and code blue stuff were excellent--what a great aggregation of learning! The "School in the Past" site shows a great way to bridge the gap between generations and encourage active learning at the same time. And, finally, the "Kindergarten Counting Page" was simply inspirational for me, in that the page did not depend on textuality (which is key for that age group!) to achieve deep and real learning.
Thing 7a
I recently signed up for the "ISTE Recent News Feed" and really enjoyed the article from the CEO about digital teaching being "No Longer an Isolated Endeavor."
