A blog about all kinds of practices: teaching, writing, reading, thinking, and learning. Monday, January 19, 2015. Returning to Teaching Methods and to My Adolescent Self.

I watched teachers watch this too—and do nothing. This week, I have asked my students to blog about their own reading and writing (which I do here. Former high school Engli...

Practice Makes Process: Why I #LoveTeaching: It’s About Finding Flow
http://msmorriswv.blogspot.com/2015/02/why-i-loveteaching-its-about-finding.html
A blog about all kinds of practices: teaching, writing, reading, thinking, and learning. Monday, February 9, 2015. Why I #LoveTeaching: It’s About Finding Flow. I love teaching for many reasons, but I love teaching best when flow happens in my classroom. I have experienced this shared energy in a silent session of independent reading or writing: the only sounds may be pages turning, pencils moving, or keys clicking, but the palpable vibration is there, collecting in the spaces between us. When a classroo...

A blog about all kinds of practices: teaching, writing, reading, thinking, and learning. Friday, August 30, 2013. A little Fugazi for your Friday: “You can’t be what you were…”.

Move—life must move us, yet finding flow in flux is often terrifyingly difficult. 21. MacKaye, I. (1989). Bad Mouth [Recorded by Fugazi]. On 13 Songs. CD] Washington, DC: Dischord. But this summer...
