It's actually my screenname (my name spelled backwards, then my favorite number, 18, backwards).<br />As far as coming up with a topic for this blog, I've spent a lot of time thinking about what I want to learn more about and I've had a surprisingly difficult time. This is, of course, because there are so many topics that I care about and want to learn about, not the other way around. If you look at my Google Reader, you'll see that I'm checking out a pretty wide variety of information, from teaching writing to English as a Second Language Students, to Teaching Tolerance: an online magazing that focuses on teaching diversity and addressing issues related to tolerance in the classroom. I'm most interested in seeing how I can make reading and writing a passion for my students, particularly those who struggle with it. As a student, I have never had a hard time working through the writing process or learning how to avoid grammatical mistakes. I hope that this class gives me some ideas!<br />Expect this first entry to change as I find a more specific topic for my blog.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2810311014856238346-5460906937815576900?l=atsirc81.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>atsirc81http://www.blogger.com/profile/12796607387537675414noreply@blogger.com1
