Good day fellow bloggers! I just want to say how wonderful it is to see the Globaloria classes growing. They aren't growing in number necessarily but in the strength of the message. I am seeing so much evidence of this strength from so many different angles.In Kevin's latest blog, he praises his class, saying how great his kids held it together despite everything that went wrong for him. I've had those kind of days and feel for him.
Denise is having great success with her students. Even when she talks about the two steps forward, one step back that our kids sometimes encounter, it's clear how hard they are working her with questions and on task requirements trying to be successful. That kind of effort in a class is priceless.
We also have very creative students. Jeremy posted a quick blog encouraging us to visit his students blogs. Having creative kids is good--having creative and focused kids is great!
Perhaps the best thing, Vicky and Angie are having their students check out other school's blogs. The benefit I have already seen from this is that two new friends have commented on my blog and opened communication--from another school no less. One is asking for advice on blogging and another shares my love of all things X-Men and the importance of blogging. Way to go ladies!
This is what Globaloria is all about: students becoming empowered in their learning. We should all be very proud!
Until next time the soap box is yours.

Great comments. It is wonderful to see everyone grow in strength, especially myself.
Bill; We appreciate your encouragement. As a newbie, I am finding different facets of the Globaloria world as I "pilfer" through folks stuff. I wish there was a better way or "orientation" to knowing what is out there. As 2nd and 3rd year folks, please remember...sometimes the newbies get lost in the shuffle.--Angie Leef
