Welcome to the Lit Blog 2009!
Hi everyone!
It's great that you've managed to find your way to this spot. I tried this a couple of years ago to get my lit students to respond in their own time, to questions that we had about our reading, and that we had talked about in class. Some did better than others (as is always the way), but on the positive side, I found out things that might never have been said in a classroom situation, particularly a lovely class like you, who are all falling all over each other for a bite of the podium - so to speak (we don't actually have a podium in our classroom!)
Anyway, here's the thing. Check in here every week - you pick a day - and I will leave stuff here for you to think about. Leave me a comment - something that everyone can read - and I will log you down as having done some 'homework'. Any questions - you just need to ask.
PS. Happy Bastille Day!
