[LIT] resolutions?

[Laurie Wasserman]

Hi!

As the new year approaches, for those of us who do make resolutions,
what
are you thinking about? And y'all?

Take care,

Bill,
What a great question to reflect on during this quiet time before we
head back next week.... I think my resolution/goal for 2008 is to help
those kids who get behind in their work, the ones who start a project or
essay but never seem to finish. The students who need lots of support,
scaffolding and emotional support because their parents work late, or
don't speak English, or just don't know how to help their children. I've
decided in order for them to be successful, I need to be there every
step of the way until they're ready to "go it alone," which not be until
later this year...
