Well, I've decided to go with the tape I originally planned to use. I don't "love" it, but enough is enough. I've taped seven times for the two entries that require videos and it's been a huge undertaking for everyone. There has to be something good about this one. It was a good lesson that connected to my curriculum, and that's what matters -- not whether one of the kids misbehaved or I looked up at the camera, made a silly face, or looked fat. That's real life! I don't have time to reinvent the wheel. My friends have said that the videos don't and shouldn't be perfect because -- in real life-- there are flaws in our teaching. Hopefully, we learn from them; that's what makes us reflective and effective teachers. Here we go...I'm writing entry 2. God speed!
