State testing requirements

I first came accross this in the BYU Museum of Art. The plaque described the artist as "is a video and electronic media artist who critiques popular media genres by humorously subverting their intended messages and exposing our engagement with their often juvenile content...The artist presents us with a voyeuristic world in which alternative personas can be digitally appropriated. His work poses the question: Can one find meaningful relationships in a virtual world?" Besides being an example of using technology to create art, I like the questions it raises. Do you think that technology can replace meaningful interactions?

I found this list of tips from another teacher, actually, but I thought it would be handy to use for a poetry unit. I love what it says about how to write successful poetry, and even perform it. It's great!

I found this website that offers free graphic organizers for teachers to help them provide a varied, exciting curriculum. These GOs can be used in all subjects. I think it is important to include organizers such as these in our curriculum to especially assist in students with special needs and culturally/linguistically diverse individuals. Enjoy!!
