Wonder

It is my third year teaching Wonder by R.J. Palacio to my students.  This year I am taking it a step further with my Honors class.

Currently I'm creating a plan to allow them to create their own school wide project to spread the idea of "Choose Kind."

I'm terrified to tell you the truth.  THEY will come up with the idea, plan it, and implement it.  SOUNDS TERRIFYING!!!!!!  I keep telling myself that this is my Honors class, what can go wrong?  But it's stepping back and letting them take control.  They need it, but I am a control freak and this is a bit much.

I am going to embrace it and hope to document my success and failures over the next few weeks.

First, we will be making book trailers for Wonder and then we'll begin our journey.  AHHH!

Wish me luck and look forward to more excitement here to come!
