Monday is the day when my students will get their Moleskine Writer’s Notebooks. One student originally said on Wednesday, “What if I don’t want to use that one? Can I use the spiral one my mom bought me?” (Naturally, I said sure!) However, yesterday afternoon he raised his hand politely and asked me if he could still have a Moleskine one. (I said yes! Afterall, I wasn’t done convincing him.) I wonder what made him change his mind… Could it be that the kids are excited about these notebooks and they’re being seen as cool or is it that he didn’t want to be the only person without one of the Moleskines.
Monday’s the Day!
