Readings 2

I have to say that i actually got pretty excited doing this weeks readings.  I really loved all the examples from chapter four about Carol's new literary stance.  I thought that the Halloween stories was a really interesting and creative way to tell a story, with all the hyperlinks and stuff.  As a upcoming teacher it is honestly exciting to think about all the different ways to teach children.  I agreed with the idea on page 51 where Carol states how the students were actually teaching themselves in a sense.  I always enjoyed that in my English classes in high school when class discussions would take place where the teacher could literally leave the room and the class would still be engaged in talking about the assigned readings.  I just find some it a bit overwhelming you know?  Like i'm scared of the responsibility i guess you could say of being a teacher, "always learning."  I think it has to do with parents and having to convince them i am actually teaching your child and yes i know what i'm doing.  Like i always picture my mom and i'd hate to be on the opposite end of her argument or hate in regards to me.  Know what i'm saying?
