Wow who new that blogging would be so much work. However, I would rather do this than other things that I have done in the past.
Multi-Genra Presentations
The presentations that we saw in the previous week where so great. It made me think that my group wasn't good enough. I'm so very proud of all of us. I can truly see that you all will be fabulous teachers one day. Some of my most favorites were the presentation on the "Giving Tree" book. How great was that. they actually made a video with the illustrations from the book. I could tell that a lot of planning and hard work went into that. Also, their poster board was put together really well. I really enjoyed the tree cookies and sweet apples!
The other presentation that really sticks out in my mind is the one about all the different cultures foods and traditions. What a big world we live in but, at the same time how very small. It was nice to watch the home make movies about how to make tortilla. You could tell that they really invested a lot of their personal time. It gave me some ideas to use the next time i have to give a presentation. Also I loved, loved the free food. I wish that every Tuesday and Thursday was like that.
Lastly, I really like the one about being afforded grace. This one made me cry. What a nice reminder to be grateful about what you have. I am truly blessed! I loved the video they put together and the karaoke. I don't think I would have the balls to do that. She did a wonderful job though. Wow we really have a lot of talent among us.
There were many others that were just as good but, these three stand out in mind the most. How I enjoyed this class! I hope to see you all in future classes.
