My commitment to my students is that I will read and comment on any piece that anyone posts for our writing challenge. All 82 kids had time in class today to kick-off their efforts, and though I know the number of posts will dwindle as the days pass, tonight that's a lot of replies to compose!
Fortunately, as I read through it tonight, as always the writing is warm and disarming, so personal and sweet that it doesn't take long to remember why we do this.

Wow! That's a lot of commenting! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThat's a huge commitment on your part--kudos! I'll be lucky if I remember to post each day during March!
ReplyDeleteNo, it doesn't take long to be affirmed at all! I'm glad you are writing again this March. Your blog link brought a smile to my face.
ReplyDeleteHappy writing (and commenting),
