As a teacher, I will emphasize the importance of using active voice in your writing.
As a father, I try to teach my kids to be active physically, mentally, emotionally.
As a human, I hope you all use your voices actively.
So let's get started . . . tomorrow.
Welcome back, ALHS.
Love Your class so far :D! I find you very funny I have a feeling your gonna be one of mt favorite teachers by the end of the year or sometime soon :).
ReplyDeleteHey--thanks for the comment . . . funny you said this, as another student felt the need to tell me today just how much her friends hate me.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I read this comment to end my day on a high note.
I'm only obligated to tell the truth. It's one of the sayings I live up to :D.
ReplyDeletethe truth comes far too rarely, it seems
ReplyDeletespeaking of which, check out "The Invention of Lying"--funny & sad how the folks say whatever is on their minds w/ no filters

ReplyDeleteIt has come to my attention that you don't know any good British music...apart from The Beatles, The Who and the Ramones, probably more...but I mean MODERN British music, and seeing how I am British I feel it is my job, nay my duty to share some British music with you:)
So check out Seasick Steve, he sounds like blues mixed with redneck:] My favorite song is cut my wings which you can look up on youtube. I will make more suggestions when I have more time, until then-
