"I just delivered my syllabus for the fall to the university where I teach writing (Montclair State). It's good to get away for the summer, but I am so glad that I will be going back there next year."

"I am syncing (is that the right spelling?) my blog, www.linguisticsintheclassroom.com to Facebook and Twitter."
Ann Anderson Evans replied to the discussion 'How, if at all, do you teach visual literacy?' in the group TEACHER WRITERS
"One non-visual exercise would be meditation.
Just thinking about it now, how about presenting an odor to them -- a perfume, herb, or some other aromatic - and asking them to verbally describe it? They could pass around something doused…"
Ann Anderson Evans replied to the discussion 'How, if at all, do you teach visual literacy?' in the group TEACHER WRITERS
"This is counterintuitive but I would present an exercise which did not include visual reaction, and then present a visual cue. I have always been amazed, for example, at the results when I tell my students (who are college freshmen) to observe…"

Blogging about teaching
Posted on May 20, 2011 at 9:50am 0 Comments 0 Likes
Hi everybody:
I teach writing to college freshmen, and I love my job. My students have never heard of a subject and a verb (or have vague memories from fifth grade), and have never thought about how language is constructed, how meaning is made, and what the role of language is in their lives. Everybody already knows how to speak English, right? They enjoy learning about the dread subject "grammar," which teachers are usually discouraged from even mentioning.

No the official NaNoWriMo is still November but I had picked up the book and decided it was a good way to jump start writing fiction. Thanks for the encouragement. I talked to Chris Baty (who wrote the book about NaNoWriMo) on twitter and he said any month works, it's just in Nov., you get to do it with thousands of other people. :)

- Hi Ann,
I am delighted to have you as a friend. This is a great place. So many writing sites are not dynamic and interactive but SheWrites definitely is. Very cool.
