I've taken most of our Slice of Life post titles and written a found poem...It's a triple part slice of life poem of appreciation...a gift of acknowledgement to slicers out there. I apologize if I could not fit yours in this poem. Some titles were just not fitting in the three categories to my liking, so I had to leave them out. I have read almost all the posts today and found so many good ones. Lots about connectedness and connections in life, lots of reflective pieces on the past school year and Oklahoma. Now I'm going back for commenting. Wow. What a group. What wonderful slices. Just thought you should know. I appreciate you.
See what I'm talking about. Visit the "rest of the stories" here at Two Writing Teachers.

Thinking about purpose for students,
Risking mediocrity

Tales of words, rich - glorious - sound stretching words

Clerihews and limericks.
Mind flip -
Saturday mornings
Searching
My secret keeping place

Walking
