I want to hear your stories!

As an educator interested in open and honest reflection on the realities of teaching, I DO want to know your stories, as you see them. Please follow this link to the anonymous form if you are willing to share. I am interested in the stories of students and parents.

Resources for Alice Munro

In doing my own research I came across some helpful links. Again, I don't post or share links that wouldn't be helpful for what you will be asked to do. I won't waste your time....promise. Have fun and let me know which link you liked and which one made you laugh (because I laughed during one of them). ;)  

1. This one shows an annotation of one of her stories. It was neat to see someone identifying areas of interaction/connection (writer's craft) and what they thought about it.  *Click on the red dots for the ideas.....

2. This next one is about her style and how much of a genius she is and why. I found some extremely helpful ideas that gave me a better platform to view her writing-- I could then "see" some of techniques that she's known for. This begins talking about "Carried Away"....

3. Finally, this last one focuses on the art and style of short story as a genre through Munro's writing. This article, as well, delves into "Carried Away" as the author discusses the art of short story.
