Welcome to Celebrating Writing K-12, a blog for EDUC 412, Teaching Writing K-12. Through this blog, you are invited to share your curiosity and discoveries about writing and teaching in general. Instead of writing to a limited audience of a teacher, you're invited to write to your peers as well. Each week, we will trade off in hosting the blog, in posting an entry, and in facilitating a discussion on the blog.
Here as an example of what you might post for a topic of discussion is a YouTube video entitled "Worth Celebrating." This is a fascinating account of a writing celebration, where students display and explain their ethnographic research into the various literacies of their communities.
What do you think? What possibilities do you see for the kinds of writing assignments and celebrations your students might do?
