Sue commented on Barry Lane's group What are you Reading?"I have this feeling that I have to read as much as I can in the next few weeks. I was wandering through the book store and this book fell off the shelf right in front of me. I had no choice, I had to buy it. It's called Wild NIghts by Joyce…"
Sue replied to Gaetan Pappalardo's discussion Four Weeks to Better Writing in the group PAWLP"Gaetan,
The NWP infomercials are amazing. I'm thinking of how to use this genre with first grade writers. I love this time of year...anything is possible. Thanks for all of your ideas.

Sue commented on Barry Lane's group What are you Reading?"Re: The Story of Success
OK. I read the second half-not so engaging, especially if you are taking a trip by air in the near future. Sometimes I thought OMG what are you saying. Lots of generalizations based on data. I'm not disappointed though,…"
Sue commented on Barry Lane's group What are you Reading?"I'm halfway through Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers: The Story of Success. It put's a new spin on the romantic image of the successful rugged individualist. It seems we may need one another more than we think, plus a little bit of luck.…"
Poetic Air
“Poetry should leave you feeling freer and not more burdened. I like to think of all good poetry as providing more oxygen in the atmosphere. Poems just make it easier to breathe.”

Vicki Spandel said… - Thanks for that inspiring comment! I love the PA teachers! I used to work with a good friend there in Lehigh--Ellen Tatalias! Many years ago. I found PA teachers to be humorous, tireless, and highly imaginative. They even put up with my very strange tennis shoes when I had fasciitis. That's enough to win any girl's heart. Thanks for writing!
