1/18/11 We had a great Dream Flags on-line teacher workshop on Saturday, the 15th, with teachers from as far away as Belize and New Hampshire connecting and sharing ideas. Using Go To Meeting, we got to see the wonderfully creative reading areas for first graders at Burrel Boom Methodist School (My favorite was the sea-themed reading area that was an inflatable pool to sit in and read!), the cabin that Jennifer Carbonneau and her husband are building along with lots on their high school's reading and writing programs, and to share many ideas from near and far on Dream Flags, teaching poetry, engaging students and community, and more! It was a quick two hours spent sharing and learning how much we have in common. We can't wait to do it again in the future.Updates for The Dream Flag Project--a multi-school poetry, art, and communtiy-building project open to K-12 students everywhere. The Agnes Irwin School is the home of The Dream Flag Project. Dream Flag Project Ning: www.dreamflags.ning.com Dream Flag Project Home: www.dreamflags.org
