Fall leaves - raking and playing in them - have made us nostalgic.  So this week we focused on positive memories we have from our school days and asked ourselves what memories we are creating for our own students.

This week, Lisa and Maria responding to a topic posted in Plurk by Beth Knittle - the purpose of education.  Beth also posted a blog entry as well. Another blog post worth reading is from David Warlick, writtern in Jan. 2009. As always, we had a good conversation in the stream and the chat room.
