It will be new learning for me as well as the students.

I remember when I was teaching fourth grade and a student had done some annotating on post-its...the book was done and he said "What do you want me to do with these?" My response? "If it was important enough to stop your reading and to write about we shouldn't throw them away. Let's tape all of them in your notebook in case we need to refer to them later. " He looked at me with his hand over the trash can...took them to his seat and taped them in. I made a point to have him use them again in a conversation with another student later that week. When you said, "Bringing post it notes to life is going to totally change the sharing in our workshop -- I'm super excited." I am excited for you! Students need to see them as a springboard for their thinking...not the end of a task. Great post! (get it?!?!?!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
