Get Ready for the 5th Annual #cyberPD Event



_____________________________________


#cyberPD is THE one online learning event that I don't want to miss every summer.  I have participated in the previous four #cyberPD events and I am as excited as ever to be co-hosting (my second year) with Cathy Mere and Laura Komos the 5th annual #cyberPD event.

#cyberPD provides me the opportunity to ...
Read a book with colleagues across the world.
Share my thoughts, questions, wonders, and thinking.
Converse about the book via blogs, comments, the Google Community and Twitter.
Learn from many colleagues who push my thinking forward.
Gain insights and ideas to take back to my classroom.
Slowly grow together over a long summer month.
Make connections that will lead to more learning in the future.

It's quite an amazing experience, and I truly hope that YOU are joining in!  Beginning next week -- the week of July 6th -- we are reading and sharing our thoughts about the book hot off the presses:

Slice of Life  hosted  at the Two Writing Teachers Join in and share a slice of your life. Last Saturday morning, I didn't need to wake up early.  I wanted to go back to sleep.  But instead my brain was awake and thinking.  Creating this list.  Writing this post.   Many of us are embarking on an adventure - the Slice of Life Story Challenge.  Writing, sharing, and commenting for thirty-one days in March.

The March Slice of Life Story Challenge hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers Join us for a month of writing! I have twin four and a half -- almost five! -- year old daughters.  I try to be consciously aware of what I say and do in regards to my body image and self-esteem and also with their body image and self-esteem. First of all, because I don't want them to believe everything that society says is true.  Even if they don't fully understand it today.  In addition, because they are fraternal twin sisters, I want them to understand they are individuals with unique and different bodies that God created for each of them.   However, society -- including my loving family and friends -- tell a different story and harmlessly create a comparison war.   My girls constantly hear how beautiful, adorable, cute, fill-in-the-blank with any other
