The young writers sitting in our classroom will rise above the fears and struggles of being a writer, but it will take intentional planning, repetitive teaching, daily writing, and reteaching. Writing is hard work. Students don't become writers because we have writing workshop. Writers become writers because teachers have clear intentions and a vision of what's possible.

It’s Morning Meeting. A few minutes past 9 a.m. We’ve already had a successful group juggle with 14 kooshes and other items. One students has shared and took questions and comments. It’s time for our activity, which is the HUMAN KNOT. As soon as the students hear the words “Human Knot,” most cheer audibly, while others look fearful. [...]

This week's theme: Green.
This week's theme stems from an article I was reading recently about "green design".
For you newcomers, the SFG Challenge runs Thursday to Thursday, and was created to offer every member an opportunity to stretch their creative muscles and post their interpretations on a specific theme. It's a lot of fun!
Be sure to label your illustrations with the appropriate labels as well. I prefer you label your entries with your name or screenname, and the challenge label, SFG: Green.
Remember, this is a completely voluntary challenge designed solely to stimulate creativity and promote participation. Please don't hesitate to post your other work as normal.
Be sure to check out the SFG Forum, some great stuff going on over there every day.
One last thing, if you're a new member, and you haven't been added to the members list yet, shoot me an e-mail with your full name, url and join date. Thanks!
The next challenge begins Thursday, August 2nd, 2007.
Challenge yourselves SFG'ers and have a great week!
-Jeff

great piece as usual. great title header on your blog too, i always love hand drawn type.
Thanks Jason, but the type on my blog header is all fonts. But hey, someone hand drew it. I did tweek the fonts a little though.
This little guy is great. I like yellowish outline around him that makes it feel like a paper cut-out. Great stuff and a nice use of background texture as well.
A lovely and awesome illustration. I really like the paper cut-out feel and the textures. Excellent!
