I had never heard of the books that Zalika showed us on Tuesday. Books are such a great way to show complexities in an approachable manner. I remember watching, as the public librarian would sometimes come to the Head Start classrooms to read to the students. It was magical. Books are such a great escape into new worlds, so much knowledge and insight to gain with a turn of a page. I am going to be sure to become good friends with the school librarian as well as the public librarian to learn of some good recommendations.
I cannot believe that tomorrow is it for our first four graduate classes. I’m excited to finally be able to unpack but I’m saddened because I feel that there is still so much more to learn. I guess that is why we continue into next summer, and also why I have decided to become a teacher. We never quit learning to teach. This thought excites me. I can’t even begin to tell you how great it feels for my brain to be activated again. I had no idea that I missed school so badly. It’s such a great forum to hear great discussions with great people. I appreciate everyone’s insights. And, I’m looking forward to seeing your artistic reflections tomorrow. Oh, and the puppet shows today cracked me up.
