The BackChannel #003: A Conversation With Rachel, August 7, 2012
This week I invited Rachel Small to the conversation. I met Rachel, for the first time just a few weeks ago, at the ISTE conference and was so impressed that I wanted to introduce her to all of you. Come listen in as Rachel shares about how she is using poetry in her elementary classroom plus her goals and hopes to be a connected learner.
