Fall 2011

When I think about our weeklong workshop, I automatically think of heroes.  Dr. Denenberg leaves quite an impression.  The students in his classes must have learned a lot.  He gave us a lot of "take and use" ideas.  We were given so much information that it is still sinking in today.  The history professor gave us so many interesting stories that it seemed like some of them must have been made up.  I have been reading more about some George Washington's early battles.

First Post

I know a lot more after these first four sessions, including many strategies I can use in all subjects.  I've got to get all the stuff organized so I can take advantage of everything.  I am excited to have a big project to work on.  First thing I am going to do is some research on the Comanches.  I was inspired by Dr. "Willy", and I think my students will really enjoy learning about the Comanche and their interactions with the settlers.
