I wonder what would happen in my classroom if...  And I know as teachers, we could fill up pages with multiple musings--thus the title of this blog.   

This summer I'm participating in an Advanced Summer Institute hosted by the South MS Writing Project and one of our goals is to come up with  an inquiry topic to research in our classrooms this school year.  It sounded like an easy project until I started reshaping, restructuring, and refining the question I had chosen about the revision process in my classroom.  I thought about how my students struggled with revising a piece of writing--more than struggled, they just plain out didn't want to do it.  Then I thought about our teacher-writer conferences and the reader response groups and finally honed in on:

        What role does the social dynamics of reader-response groups have on a writer's revisions?

Blogging is a new adventure for me, so if you decide to come along on my journey, please share your comments, especially if you're wondering something along the same lines about your students.

Hope to hear from y'all soon!
