Thanks to Barbara Cohen of Independent Thinking for tagging me for this cool Passion Quilt meme.
Directions: Find or create an image that captures what you are most passionate for kids to learn about.
I took this picture from the air of the Hayward salt ponds. What I like about this is how you can find beauty from most anywhere. Patterns on the ground make a real quilt to enjoy. The world looks different from above and now with Google Earth, students can find these patterns and leave a placemark with facts, images, videos, and even create an audio podcast. This picture is in our eLibrary and available for people to download and use with their students.
3 Simple Meme Rules:
Post a picture from a source like Flickr Creative Commons or make/take your own that captures what YOU are most passionate about for kids to learn…and give your picture a short title.
Title your blog post “Meme: Passion Quilt” and link back to this blog entry.
Include links to 5 folks in your professional learning network or whom you follow on Twitter/Pownce. (What is Pownce?)
Tag. Your turn — what are you passionate about sharing with the kids you teach? or share with the teachers you teach?
