It was a little challenging to set up the Google Reader. However, with persistance and assistance from my coach, I was able to complete the assignment. This is a very interesting way to receive current information about particular topics that interest you. My concern is having the time to review the feeds that will be sent to the reader. Hopefully, I can manage the items so that I am able to review the ones of interest.
In reviewing several feeds, there was one that was of great interest to me. Young American Indians Find Their Voice in Poetry was a wonderful article about young people capturing their culture through poetry. What a wonderful means to share your culture with others! Listening to the young poets was mesmerizing. Their group poem about “Writing” shared their explanation of what writing is. As part of a poetry collaborative effort with one of my fourth grade colleagues, these poems will be shared with our students as an example of how poetry can be published for others to hear.
