Ruth's SOLS: Nate - 2 views

  • I think the slice of life is this: Life is fragile. Share your story with others. Listen to the stories of the people you care about. Take time to sit down, brew a cup of coffee, and talk about all the stuff that doesn’t seem to matter.
  • Who should you sit down and talk with today? Trust me the housework and errands and the list of “to-do’s” can wait. Sharing our stories with one another can’t.

Writing Heals - 0 views

  • Writing is a form of personal freedom. It frees us from the mass identity we see in the making all around us. In the end, writers will write not to be outlaw heroes of some underculture but mainly to save themselves, to survive as individuals. — Don Delillo
  • This morning when I awoke, I realized the hole in my heart was more at peace than it has been. I believe part of the reason is because I have taken the time to write about Nate and have shared those words with others.
  • Too often we push away the things that hurt. We brush them under the rug, shove them into a dark corner, and tie them up in the bottom of a drawer. Our classrooms are filled with children who are hurting. Although I’m not an advocate for making writing workshop a therapy session; I do believe one of the truths about writing is it helps us to heal.

  • In a world where people avoid the things that make them hurt, we have an opportunity to teach students the healing power of writing. This is part of making writing workshop genuine and responsive to the needs of our students. This isn’t a lesson we will be able to “schedule ahead” in our lesson plan books; however, it is one we can be prepared to give when tragedy strikes.
