Teaching is the profession that teaches all the other professions. ~ Author Unknown

My goal is to reveal one teacher's humble journey of self-reflection, critical analysis, and endless questioning about my craft of teaching and learning alongside my middle school students.

"The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called 'truth'." ~ Dan Rather

Dance vs. PowerPoint, a modest proposal = very cool!

I thought some of you might enjoy this "modest proposal" to replace power point presentations with dance presentations instead.  


An interesting maxim from the presenter: "when trying to explain something, use as few words as possible."  This line made me think of the final moments of T-440, when Eleanor led us all in a dance, capturing a semester of insight, inspiration, confusion, community, learning and laughter.
