Hi Brian! Your post just gave me a ‘D’Oh’ moment (in a good way). In my post I was really focused on the use of hyperlinks within blogging. In hindsight, I completely ignored (didn’t even think about) my […]

You know it’s bullying when Mom’s involved. Seriously…why are politicians going to the level of junior high school yard? I do like how some conservatives refuse to send out tax payer funded mail outs. At least […]

Hi Katy.
As a humanities teacher, your idea about teaching history through peacemakers caught my attention. How could we change society if we focused on this instead of war? For awhile I’ve been toying around […]

Your examples you Trump and Ramsey are excellent! These guys fit the model of workplace bully, and point out how society celebrates it.
As a Canadian, I was a little taken aback by the Conservatives preemptive […]

Kids aren’t stupid. We’re teachers. We know this. Part of not being stupid is seeing hypocrisy in action. Society is preaching a solid NO to all forms of bullying but the kids aren’t bullying any […] -

On my first read of your post and question, I immediately thought “yes” students should use full names as it creates authencity and ownership of their blogs. Then I read your post a second time and saw grade 2. I […]
