L549 Patti's Blog: Readings for 11/15
http://l549patti.blogspot.com/2010/11/readings-for-1115.html
Saturday, November 13, 2010. I traveled to China as a 10-year-old and spent a day in a school while I was there. How confusing! To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to be getting from this reading other than an example of what can be done with different forms of literacy. If you'd like to see the actual multiliteracies map that's being discussed, I found it at an Australian website. November 15, 2010 at 12:08 PM. This is crazy, and Im not sure how I feel about it. First of all, the r...

Monday, November 1, 2010. More Show Than Tell. I am always amazed when a particular work is able to bring life to a character in a single paragraph, and sometimes even less. Allen’s Bringing Subjects to Life. I love garden metaphors. They are generous and expansive in interpretation and universal in application. In The Profit. Khalil Gibran speaks of friendship. “He is your field which you sow with love and reap with Thanksgiving.”. Paul Fleishman’s, Seedfolks. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

bilblog: MGRP in Action
http://kikikazee.blogspot.com/2010/10/mgrp-in-action.html
Monday, October 18, 2010. Today was the first week of the School of Education’s Science Saturday program. After this week’s readings I had a much clearer picture of multi-genre usage within a single theme. I participated in this week’s installment of Science Saturday and was able to see firsthand the effects of multi-genre usage on the learning process. Though it was scheduled for between 9:30 am and 12 PM it ran a little long. The elementary students were divided into three groups, k-2nd, 3rd-4.

Saturday, November 6, 2010. We just have to put our poster presentation together. Yeah! Everyone remember to turn your clocks back tonight and get an extra hour of sleep. You'll need it for the final MGRP push! November 7, 2010 at 8:52 PM. I agree that some topics are better than others for this type of project. I was lucky with mine I suppose. Im looking forward to seeing your presentation! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Some Useful Educational Blogs. Mrs Mimi Taught Second Grade and Shares the Love.

Saturday, November 27, 2010. Links to this post. Friday, November 19, 2010. Is anyone else as excited about learning to edit videos as I am? While I can think of plenty of ways to use it in the classroom, I'm more interested in it from a personal perspective. I have tons of video that we've taken over the years, none of which has ever been viewed or edited. I realize that the tool we're using isn't that fancy, but just to learn the basics is exciting to me. Links to this post. Saturday, November 13, 2010.

L549 Patti's Blog: Readings for 11/29

Saturday, November 27, 2010. November 28, 2010 at 8:01 PM. I like your idea of finding something more positive to replace what we dont agree with. We cant control everything that kids are exposed to but we can express our opinions and encourage kids to think critically about not only media-related topics but also about proper ways to respond and behave.

bilblog: The Power of Multi-genre
http://kikikazee.blogspot.com/2010/11/power-of-multi-genre.html
Wednesday, November 24, 2010. The Power of Multi-genre. My experience with the multi-genre project was much different than I expected. I was prepared to learn more about multiculturalism and the benefits of building a multicultural classroom community. I believed this would come through investigation on my research paper. I did not have much confidence that the other genres would be as persuasive, nor would they provide any additional understanding. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Arthur J. Tippin.

L549 Patti's Blog: Readings for 10/18
http://l549patti.blogspot.com/2010/10/readings-for-1018.html
Saturday, October 16, 2010. The Powell and Davidson article, "The Donut House." made me think about how, when trying to spread a good idea around, the true benefit gets diluted. How many of us have gone on a field trip, maybe taken notes or drawings during the field trip, written or drawn up a report, and maybe written a thank-you note? I think so. Typically, they study something close enough to their school that they can walk to it, much like the doughnut shop in the article. October 17, 2010 at 7:55 PM.

Sunday, November 28, 2010. Myths That Bind and Divide. In seeming awareness of past wrongs or in an effort to jump on the political correctness bandwagon, Disney has made an attempt to show minorities in a positive light. However, the addition of feature-length cartoons Mulan. These shallow attempts to rectify errors of the past ring hollow. Must think and fight like a man in order to succeed. Mom is more capable of saving her super-hero husband. In WALL-E. Both also defend the Princess and Prince charmi...
