One of the best things about being a leader with the Western Massachusetts Writing Project (beside learning about writing and the teaching of writing) is connecting with colleagues in other schools and other levels of teaching. Yesterday, our WMWP board met for the first time this school year, and we began discussion of “themes” to guide our activity, work and conferences this coming year.
We didn’t agree on an overarching theme yet, but you can see from this brainstorming list that we have a lot of possibilities to chew on and we will try to make connections across ideas. This list captures only the main ones that emerged from an enriching writing and sharing activity during our meeting. But the ideas here cover a lot of ground worth exploring.
Peace (in the think),
