I went and saw Drive last Thursday. Between the consistent Gosling smolders…I learned some things about blogging.

Really?…LitMaven

Yes…stay with me here.

The movie Drive refers to the character’s real job of a stunt driver and his side occupation as a “getaway” car driver. See that duality?

That’s how I feel all the time. Most of the time, I have a “real” job as a language arts consulant…but on the side, I am the LitMaven.

No..I do not wear racing gloves or a cool satan scorpian jacket…though that might be something to look into.

But that is why I need to blog…because when I blog…I am just me…not an employee…just me.

So strike up that inner Blogger and hit the cyber road!

Yesterday I had a presentation in front 150 plus educators. Thankfully, I am used to this but it is so hard to tailor a presentation to that size.

I got a chuckle this morning when I read in the AVON catalogue…

ITEM: FOXY FEDORA “One Size Fits Most.”

I laughed at the disclaimer…sort of a promise without the committment.

That’s exactly how I felt yesterday. I hoped that each teacher found something that helped them with their language arts program. But like anything there will be some people that leave frustrated that it was too much for them to take in or…too little.

So I guess, that’s where LiveBinders come in.

Is it possible that “One LiveBinder can fit ALL?”

YES!

Those nifty little tabs make it easy to differentiate. For example, if the topic was bears. Isn’t it possible that bears would be the general tab with pertinent information about a project. Then, the subtabs could provide the options based on ability or choice of modality.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm …..I think I have hit on something.

Cause you definitely don’t want this!

Until Next Time,
