So, I am doing one of my favorite things today, and that is getting into classrooms and being with kids and teachers. But even better, today I am working with teachers and getting kids writing on their own Blog site! How cool is that! Will is writing about his cat (just kidding, Will), Quinn is writing about how he hopes his Fantasy Football is better than mine (I have Matthew Stafford as my starting QB, Quinn...), and it goes on and on. What I am REALLY super excited about, though, is the fact that I get to do this every day. For a living. Like, this is my life and I get to spend my days with awesome middle schoolers and middle school teachers. We work hard, but we also play hard. This is definitely where it's at.
My hope is that, through this blogging experience, they find voices as writers and realize they ALL have something important to say. They don't have to be adults to have a voice. Just one VOICE can make a difference, and I guess that is what we blog for also - to make a difference in someone's life. To move someone with our words. From the clicking of the keyboards around the room, my guess is that they are off to a good start.
