Morning 6-29

This has been an unbelievable couple of weeks. I came into the summer institute excited and ready to learn a lot and aware that I had a lot of work to do. 6 credit hours sort of gives that away. :) I am learning to get over writing shyness and just write and share and be okay with it. I tend to share often but I still struggle with feeling like a better writing teacher than a writer. That is slowly shifting...
We have created a lot of writing, collaborated a lot, and I have been taken outside of my comfort zone which has been great. I mentioned in my reflection how I enjoyed being part of a writing community. I am always working to create that community in my classroom for my students and it was really fantastic to be able to truly experience it. Makes me remember why I want it so badly for my kids.
I am not sure what my role will be with the UWP. I am open but I am not sure that my current demo will fit with their current need. I am grateful for the experience and the group that I am now a part of and I look forward to continuing to grow as a writer, researcher and leader.
