Trying to stay on top of things!
It seems like my head is starting to spin with everything is due! Last night we had class in the AET zone b/c of the wonderful snow!! I was looking forward to the International Fair, but it was nice to sit at home in my PJ's while we had class on the Internet. We are planning to the Fair on te 17th. Last night we talked about Literature Circles. It reminded of what would go on in a book club. Basically we're picking books to read in different sections that we signed up for and discuss the books in the discussion board with our groups for that week. We also have to chose some books independently to read and give a 5 min. presentation to the class on the 17th. We did a practice round of the Lit. Circle. I got kind of confused at first and didn't understand the instructions...go figure. I didn't like having a time limit to type our thoughts and questions in the DB about the book we read. But of course we won't have time limits when we're doing this for real! Sometimes we'll meet F2F, or in chit chats, or on the discussion board. I'm excited about reading all of the differnt genres of books!!
