Thing 2

I have to admit that this is my first experience with blogs. I have never written or read a blog before nor felt any need to do so. I am sort of a private person, and I prefer to share my thoughts and opinions only with people I choose. I guess you could say I am somewhat out of my comfort zone. As such, this will be a totally new experience having my thoughts viewed by the public. It is somewhat scary to me knowing that I could be judged by someone who knows nothing about me. I am, however, always open to new experiences so I am willing to begin a new adventure of sorts.

I enjoyed the blog on Guerilla Season Book Club. The questions were well written, and the students needed to think before they answered the questions. I can see how this would be a very interesting way of getting students involved in a classroom book discussion. When the students were finished reading the book, I’m sure they understood its content much more than if they had just read the book and were assigned to do something like a book report. Obviously rules would need to be established before we began. Safety of the students would also need to be considered.

Well, here’s to new experience …….
