Decided to do the live-blogging thing again today. I still don’t have a very clear idea of how to do it, but I did it all the same. Put up three posts today. I have one more post — about this morning’s session with Sonia Sanchez — but I didn’t want to rush it just to meet our midnight deadline, so it will wait until tomorrow.
To Becky E.-easy to pass the blame! When we had our school talent show, a Mom whispered to me that a few parents had asked me to settle the kids down. The audience couldn’t hear some of the acts.
1. Who talked the most?- adults!
2.Who is responsible for the kids’ behavior at 6:30 on a Sat night? Apparently me, but I think it is the parents’ job to model polite audience behavior and make sure their kids are following that.
But I did speak up and it quieted for a while. Next year I will say that to the audience- “Please be sure your student is a good listener!”
Thinking Aloud: I checked our Spam and didn’t see it. Did you post under another name? SAS

I’m in pretty late (for me) today. However, I was in NYC. I’m a little tired, so this piece isn’t well-organized! Alas, it’s here.
