Very interesting-made me want to jump right into a classroom right away. Also relevant since yesterday I went to visit and talk to my mothers 2nd grade class. I usually talk about how reading is important and they should apply themselves in school. This time though (thanks to this class), I added in a bit about how there is no reason in their minds that school should not be fun. I pointed out some of the neat things they get to do on the smartboard and online and pointed out how these things let them have fun while learning. I told them to see school as fun and enjoyable (especially before they get to college and just have to read thick books all day :P). Hopefully they'll take at least a little bit to heart (and maybe I'll be teaching their children one day--who of course will come to 1st grading reading on a 3rd grade level and have full knowledge of blogs and vid casting :).
