mini saga movie

As usual I am having a difficult time packaging my min saga. I remember most of the steps but I have to be forgetting some of them because it isn't working right. No worries though I will be talking to Faye about it tomorrow.

I did find it weird though that I was able to relay Pinks book so much into the whole mini saga process. I think the design of the mini saga is a perfect way to help students tell stories clearly and to the point. Students are always texting and or e=mailing each other, and when they are doing either, they aren't writing full stories but abridges versions. That's why I think mini sagas will be fun for students to do because their design is the same type of design of writing they are used to in their lives. I think it is very important to try to link up what your teaching to something that the students can relate to.

So honestly I didn't really like delicious.com. I would rarely add to it and didn't see what the hype was about last semester. This week during class I found a really cool website and book-marked it thinking that maybe I could use it at another time. Then during our common planning something came up and I wanted to share the web-site that I found and with delicious I was able to share it with everyone. So now I am a fan of delicious. :)
