Wrapping things up

"Questions are drawn from the student's personal curiosity at the time of the assigned activity and are strong enough to continue beyond the academic experience-a lifelong learning mystery."
Callison- The Blue Book.

I am started to understand inquiry a bit better now as I am wrapping up my project. I was not sure where I was going to start when it was first assigned, but rereading the quote above helped me realize that it doesn't matter what I chose as long as it was relevant to me at the time I chose it. As a teacher, alphabet books have always been important to me. I used them with all of my classes. Understanding and sharing different holidays is important to me also. I've always tried to help my students understand the world around them better. Holdiays are a big part of understanding our culture.

I am finishing up my PowerPoint and getting ready to share it soon. I'll be waving soon...
