Moonie, what is your favorite color?

A deep shade of red known as 'claret'. It's rich, elegant and passionate while being understated.

Colors are very important to me. I collect color swatches - materials and those paint thingy at the hardware store. I can pour over color combinations for hours. I love to mix paint up and create shade and tones. In art, that is what draws me in the most - the use of color.

Hi brd!

What is your favorite DC monument? The Lincoln Memorial. He was one of the most important men to hold office in such a pivotal moment in history. He words echo in my mind over and over. The other monuments don't elicit the same emotional response from me. (also he and I are the same Myers-Briggs personality type so I feel a kinship)

Favorite Museum? I think American History. I taught US history myself and my husband is an historian. I can see those exhibits over and over and always discover something new.

I think probably the Colonial period. Everything seemed so fresh and new and fraught with both dangers and possibilities. A chance to create something new and courageously try new ways. and the leaders who stepped up at the time - what a wonderful collection of leaders.

Congrats Bluemoon!

What is your favorite thing to teach?

What are the biggest changes you have seen in education while you've been teaching?

Fido - I can't believe you're old enough to have gone to school in the 60's! You must have watched the show after kindergarten! As a kid I used to watch shows, then go outside and reinact everthing I just watched. I organized the neighborhood kids into a street theater group.

The Dicken's question: it would be Lucy Manet. Noble, loving and well-loved. That book was my favorite as a teen.

Hi Wendy!
Favorite thing to teach - in the classroom it's the history of theater. But my favorite educational experience is being a retreat leader. I make it a point to serve as a leader on a Kairos retreat once a year. I learn as much as my students and it's wonderful to get to see a whole different side to them. Afterward I feel like I'm working with the student as a 'whole person' rather just a name on my class roster.

Biggest changes: the aforementioned pressures and pain that many students are living with these days. The students thenselves are different, and not for the better.

LOL

You are the best!

I've been going through the thread looking for any questions I may have missed. I know, DG, I'm still working on it

I've noticed two things: my typing is horrible today. Pardon me, I'm rushing and not proof reading.

Secondly, I need to take moment and thank Craig for this thread. Although it's been said by many before me, I must reiterate - this was a great idea and an even greater reality. A lovely way of creating and renewing the sense of community here. Thank you for making this possible, Craig.

Another sign we're on the same wavelength - I was just about to ask!

No hurry - or pressure

Congratulations, Blueboon. Another great choice. Special delivery for you special day. Don't eat them all at once! Have a fantastic day....



Question - Tell us about your favourite photograph of you.
