Words Matter

We can choose to be “Word Wizards” as we travel through life.

At NCTE2018 I learned about “zines” and actually created one. We were in a hotel lobby – about 10 of us celebrating the fact that we were gathered together in Houston. Such gatherings seem like faint memories now when they were at least annual gatherings in the past.

From the larger group, to our small group, I again learned the power of whole group and small group structures. Day learning with thousands. Night learning in a small group. A group already defined. Basically a #g2great group.

Subgroups.

Where do they come from?

One teacher

Sharing with friends

Teaching

Prompting

Encouraging

As we explored

New ideas

and formats.

Thank You, Margaret Simon, for reminding us that we truly are “more than one way” when we gather together!

When you attend a conference, how do you share your learning?
