The more I hear about the innovative and creative stuff that English teachers do, the more excited I get. I often feel that I don’t do a good enough job of sharing the good ideas. I just heard of this cool collaborative project that Mike P and Kim W worked on together and wanted to share the idea. Kim’s E1H kids worked with Mike’s Brit Lit 2 kids for two hours this morning for an in-school field trip. Mike’s kids taught Kim’s kids the 3-step process they use in his BL2 class from going from page to stage. From the descriptions I got from Mike and Kim, it sounded like it went really well and was good – for different reasons – for both groups of students. Both would be happy (I think!) to talk to you about this idea.
