Thanks, Tonya, for the great snacks. We need to keep our energy up for all this blogging :)
Several comments:
1) Thanks for the food! It really helps keep me going.
2) I'm still feeling some apprehension about the research paper (can't seem to settle on a topic). Hopefully tomorrow I can come up with an idea I will feel some passion about. I think I just have too many other thoughts swimming through my head and I've not found time to focus on this.
I am blogging to #3 becuase I have so much swarming in my head from this week and cannot get my thoughts in any "concise" form! Thanks everyone for the positive comments on the teaching demo. I appreciate everyone's positive attitudes this week. I am looking forward to working with everyone in the next three weeks.
One more thing I forgot:
There were several today who spoke of "apologizing" for poor writing. Please rethink this. Have faith in what you say and don't worry about mistakes. A friend of mine once said, "If you're going to make a mistake, make a glorious one."
Your words have value.
I am feeling better, beginning to feel like I fit in. Also I could write today, mine still doesn't look or sound like other people's, but I feel like the road isn't so long now and that the miles are not too long and I will get there. I also got to keep telling myself stop saying I am worried, and I there yet, am I there yet?
Hey Y'all,
I just wanted to share the value of the Reading Rhetorically article that Sherrie passed out to us. I've read most of it, and I feel so much relief regarding the research paper. I know i'm not the only one fearing this experience, but i say,,,Have no fear the QA analysis is here. Tad
I would like to say that this group really rocks! I feel safe and comfortable putting myself down on paper in front of all of you! We are really starting to develop some fine friendships, and some fine writing will follow!
I also want to say thanks to Tonya for the snacks, very tasty!
I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for making this a class that I actually feel welcomed and free to talk. I have taken several classes where you are afraid of saying anything. This class has really been stressful but with everyone's understanding we are continuing in the right direction!
Thank you so much for everything. I feel so much better about the projects and "myself as a writer", because everyone in the class makes me feel this way. The comfort factor is more important than what we realize. We should always encourage others to feel comfortable enough to write. I know this is how I want my students to feel.
I wanted to comment on how fortunate I feel being able to get to know all of you. I think it is great to be able to listen to everyone's thoughts and ideas. I love being able to meet other educators and develop a friendship with them. I would love to be able to work with each one here in this class. Everyone is so supportive and stimulating. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, Thanks Tonya.
