Article of the Week - Kelly Gallagher

I have never read Kelly Gallagher before, but I really like his ideas on the article of the week activity. I will certainly integrate this activity.

There is a short video about it here: http://www.stenhouse.com/html/article-of-the-week.htm

There is a list of articles he is using here: http://www.kellygallagher.org/article-of-the-week/

Here is a podcast about his grading policies. I have to read more of his stuff.

Booktalks Blog Up

I have had students recording book talks as a form of book review for the last two semesters. I envision it as a place for other students to turn to when they are looking for a new book to read. I am still managing the last round of recordings, but there are over a hundred up now. I'll include one of the best below, but you can peruse them all by book title or author at the site. The best ones from each round get a gif and a special listing.
