Literacy Through Photography Show

Having cameras in the classroom has been an incredible experience. The students were so excited and motivated about each activity. In the end students made a poster showing off 8 or 9 photos. They were also allowed to pick their favorite photo and have it enlarged. Here are some of the displays from our "LTP Gallery Night" at the school. The children were so proud. Please scroll down to see a couple of photos from the show.

Sarah's Exciting News

I am so excited for and proud of Sarah!! After graduation she will be joining the Appalachia Service Project for one year. This is even a paid position. I guess the past seven years of her volunteer work for ASP has been for a purpose greater than we ever really knew. I think this is a perfect fit for Sarah and for ASP. If you are curious about ASP visit www.asphome.org

Listen up!

Okay, so I went to a techie conference thinking I knew something about technology.......boy was I wrong, or should I say.......novice, for lack of a better word, other than idiot! I left with my head spinning, and more questions than answers. It was fabulous to see all of the wonderful possibilities that are out there for my students to experience. I want to be able to share all of these amazing things with them, but first I must figure it all out. So, here I am trying to figure out this world of blogging, much to my daughter Sarah's dismay. She has been selected to teach her mum about this world. By they way she gave my blog its title, as if I talk a lot or something.
