Should we be scrapbooking with our students?
Ali Edwards wrote the following today in her Words + Photos Post (Day Three): What if you encouraged your kids (by example and through encouragement) to be the kind of people who grow up telling their own stories?

A very different unit of study
What if...? That's a question I ask myself very often when I try to get my imagination running when I'm writing fiction, which is not the easiest genre for me (to write in). However, as I looked over my shoulder to where my scrapbooking supplies are located, I asked myself, "What if we taught a… Continue reading A very different unit of study
