Post personal introductions using your metaphor piece (Liston & Zeichner, 1996, p. 37).

- My own metaphor for teaching can be presented by visualizing an old cartoon where a snowball started down a hill and as it picked up speed and size also picked up people. Soon a huge snowball with arms and legs sticking out at every angle was speeding down the hill. This is how I imagine my classes. I may not get every need met by every student but as a whole we do learn and pick up speed and turn out going in the same direction. Some (arms and legs sticking out) may not completely get it at first but as the snowball gets bigger, they are engulfed. That's how I view my classes. Alison Please reply with a metaphor of your own vision of teaching and a brief bio of who you are, your goals, teaching experience, life...so we can get to know each other. Thanks, Alison
