Field Notes is Looking for Writers!

Spring 2007: Student Leadership
How does your program define student leadership, and what do you do to
promote student leadership? Why not talk about this at your next staff
meeting and write an article for the next issue of Field Notes! We are
happy to include writing by your students in this issue. We would also
love program photos. Share your accomplishments with the rest of the
field!
Deadline: December 15, 2006. If you are interested, please contact
Lenore Balliro at lballiro at worlded.org 


Summer 2007: Teaching From the Heart
The summer issue of Field Notes offers a chance for teachers to write
about their work in a personal way. The topic "teaching from the
heart" is open to interpretation. Instead of writing about outcomes,
standards, or performance accountability, share your most heartening
classroom stories, your heartbreaks and heart-healing tales. Write about
a book you've used that has "heart" in the title; submit a lesson
plan on Valentine's Day or a lesson on cardiac care. Explore idioms
relating to the heart for an ESOL class. Brainstorm with colleagues and
come up with some other ideas. The deadline is April 1, so there's
plenty of time. This issue, with your creative input, will be
lighthearted and heart-healthy. Remind us why we got into this work, and
refresh yourself in the process. For submission guidelines, go to
<www.sabes.org> and click on Field Notes. Questions? Email Lenore
Balliro, editor, at <lballiro at worlded.org>
