Earlier this week, Sheryl at 21st Century Learning Collaborative threw out to her Twitter community the following challenge:
On TLN we are playing a game- Six-Word Memoirs- if you were writing a mini-memoir of your teaching life, what would your six words be?
The response has been both charming and inspirational. I have added mine and shared some words of wisdom from others:
