The all-important three-letter word

I am surprised that "fun" didn't show up much on the Word-le because that, for me, was the operative word. Fun. Play. Experiment. I am taking a playful attitude from our class.
I want to keep working on my digital photography site as well as figure out ways to use this for English.
I am going to add a video, the opening bit from "Manhattan" by Woody Allen with the gorgeous score from "Rhaposody in Blue." I use it to give students a feel for New York City as they start Catcher in the Rye. The black and white photography and music...a nice three-minute interlude.

Here's our new blogging rubric!

If you asked students a specific prompt, you might use this to assess them.
