I am SO late getting to this meme called Passion Quilt. Someone tagged me (darn it, I can’t remember who!! If it you, sorry) and I spaced out on it but I am interested. This was started by Miguel over Around the Corner and the meme is to find a picture for a virtual quilt that represents your passion for teaching.
I know I just used this photo for my Slice of Life, but it does represent something powerful to me: young people seeking out the good in each other and finding words to praise those actions and deeds and words.
So here is my entry for the Passion Quilt
Miguel provides three simple Meme rules:
- Post a picture from a source like FlickrCC or Flickr Creative Commons or make/take your own that captures what YOU are most passionate about for kids to learn about…and give your picture a short title.
- Title your blog post “Meme: Passion Quilt” and link back to this blog entry.
- Include links to 5 folks in your professional learning network or whom you follow on Twitter/Pownce.
So, whom do I tag?
Peace (in connecting strands),
Kevin
As a quilter, I love this idea of a virtual quilt and the photo you used is perfect!
I don’t know how else to get ahold of you so I’ll answer your post on my blog here. Hope that’s ok.
>>PS — Can I just say, I love your templates for writing — the pictures as canvas. How are you doing it? Is there a program you are using?
Sorry to be so curious but they are lovely posts (including the writing)<<
Thank you so much for your very kind comments. Coming from a writer such as yourself, I am beaming.
I am using a program called Scrapbook Max, but I am just using the blank templates and not too much of what they actually offer with the program. Part of the template I use allows me to cut and paste all my journaling at one time and that is very convenient. Then I am able to import any photo in my computer. I know this same type of digital imaging can be done with photoshop by more advanced techno heads, but I am not one of them!
