It's said that you learn more from failure than from success. I can believe that.
Here is a not-very-exciting picture of my back patio area By over fertilizing the plants out there I lost a lot of impatiens. The ones I planted in the recycled container that I rescued from the pond didn't make it.
I stopped over- fertilizing and when the sun was out moved the chair over to shade the impatiens in the afternoon and I'm happy with the result
I had known about the Mi'Kmaw game of waltes for many years but I had never seen it played. Today at the Port Royal Habitation we were offered the opportunity to learn how to play this ancient game. Waltes is played with a wooden bowl and six two sided dice. The player bangs the bowl to make the dice jump and tries to get five matching dice to open the game. Play continues with various combinations of dice needed to score. In a very nice touch, a hand is swept over the bowl after each failed turn to remove your bad luck. The sticks are used to keep score.

This is the general outline I am using to train my teachers about breaking down large projects into parts using web 2.0 tech. Popplet is collaborative up to 10 users. We love it. It can do so much more than what is seen here.

Me at Pittsburgh's Cathedral of Learning...the original from which I made my Librarian Trading Card.
This is part of a photo shoot for a not for profit organization for documenting their innovative methods for teaching and learning in a school for under-privileged girls - the main focus of teaching method is encouraging children to tackle problems through group analysis and discussion instead of handed down learning. The class rooms are redesigned so that groups of girls face each other. The subject teachers are trained to introduce the topics but thereafter take a less active role,; mainly acting as a facilitator to the students in finding their answers through a dialectic process
Natural Henna artist September Reed visits the Avondale Regional Branch Library's teen summer learning program to share information on the history of henna, the process of creating paste, and the resulting stains. Each participant practices drawing their design and applying (lotion) henna—(there is no white henna!) Everyone received a practice tube of white lotion and a tube of brown henna to take home and apply.
