My first graders are capable of having these evaluated conversations when given the opportunity. This is the reason I wanted to share some titles I found successful to this process.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02373919113998181845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8437462248646219785.post-29165046325798533012014-08-14T07:36:04.928-07:002014-08-14T07:36:04.928-07:00Cathy,

I just added This is the Rope to my Amazon shopping cart. Thanks for the suggestion and for hosting such an amazing event.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02373919113998181845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8437462248646219785.post-68969564037598690992014-08-14T05:55:05.331-07:002014-08-14T05:55:05.331-07:00I like this idea to deepen conversations around im...I like this idea to deepen conversations around important issues.

I also think This Is the Rope would start some interesting conversations. The way the rope helps tell the family's story and ties them together is significant. Of course, I just love Jacqueline Woodson's work --- all of it. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your titles. I look forward to checking out A Nation's Hope and Wind Flyers (Nikki Giovanni & Bryan Collier!…heard Bryan speak last winter - WOW). <br /><br />I am so sorry it was challenging for you to link to the host blog. I added Disqus. I like the way it keeps track of the conversations and notifies commenters of replies. (Though I'm not sure commenters like that.) However, those without an account are having a hard time commenting. Disqus also makes it challenging for me to click directly to blogs from commenters icon. Unfortunately, I'm not really sure how to disable it. I'm working on it. Adding your post to the jog now. So glad you joined the event. <br /><br />Cathy Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.com
