What a Dream!

It was always my dream to one day publish a book with the creative thinking and dreams of the young students in my Language Arts class. In today’s world of high competition for limited resources in a global society, young people need to be told that they have an opportunity to explore their creativity and goals in order to be able to participate in global competition for education and jobs. Young people are endowed with a wealth of information, thanks to technology and innovation coupled with creativity. This abundance of creative information, young people also need to know that they can capture creative skills and talents through writing. The big idea in my Language Arts class is that students will be able to process information effectively and be able to communicate their ideas and thoughts effectively through their writing and speaking. As their teacher I am prepared to make the aspirations and dreams of students come alive through their writing as they try to entertain their peers.
