Welcome!!!!

Welcome to Lit's Blog, where all things literary are fair game! As a middle school Language Arts teacher, one of the many things I'll be using this forum for is to share my opinions on books, both Young Adult, and otherwise, that I've recently read, and hope that you'll jump into the fray with your thoughts, as well! Please visit often, as I'll be adding regularly. Just scan the titles of each blog for the book's name, and let me know what you think!

(Parents: At the end of each blog, you'll find a "book rating", based upon the MPAA ratings (see link entitled "MPAA Ratings Guide"). Since I generally try to read whatever the kids seem to be reading, and encourage my students to read a wide menu of texts, do not be surprised if you see an "R" rating on a title, or two. I will do my best to be as accurate as possible - HOWEVER, this rating is intended only as a guide. Ultimately, it is your decision as to whether your child should read the titles listed, or not.)

Thing# 16 My Life Just Got Easier (and a WHOLE LOT MORE EXCITING)!!!!

Wow! I had NO idea how useful wikis could be!!!! I see an immediate application for using this as a remote type of planning tool for the 7th and 8th grade L.A. teams that I'm on (which is what I'll be doing as soon as I finish this post!). I also really like the 10th grade Lit Circle wiki, and will definitely be using that in some way, shape or form next year. I also had fun playing around in the SBISD wikisandbox. Now I'm off to see if I can create my own!
