The Age of Conversation - Across Disciplines

Aoc2_3_2Last year, I was just beginning to blog when The Age of Conversation was published. I've grown to know several of the contributors -- and this year, I'm excited to be part of the team.

Angela, welcome aboard and thanks for getting the word out. Happy 2008!

Angela, I look forward to getting to know you during this second collaboration. Participating in Age of Conversation last year was one of the best things I did. Welcome to the project.

C. B. and Connie, I am glad to be aboard the team. I am so looking forward to this opportunity-What an exciting thing to be a part of! Thanks for the welcome!

Angela, glad you will be joining us this year! The more voices and perspectives, the better. :)

Hi Angela,

Our class is working on text features in a nonfiction book. Will you help me understand the difference between a table and a chart? I can't seem to find the answer for that. Thanks a bunch!!!

Becky, I am thrilled. Thanks for stopping by, and I look forward to working with you and the crew!

Lori,
That is a great question. I will put up a quick post on this in a few days! Thanks!

Angela - It was such a rewarding experience being part of AoC - part one .. and fun too! Looking forward to reading your chapter :-)

Great to have you onboard, Angela! Looking forward to it.

Gavin and Toby, conversations are as important in the school room as they are in the board room. The lines between business and school need to be blurred and AOC2 helps so that. I am just thrilled for the opportunity to share my voice in the choir!
