I enjoyed reading your blog. I find...Hi Meredith,<br /><br />I enjoyed reading your blog. I find it interesting that dance and art helped you control your A.D.D. in school. I think it is much healthier to take advantage of the excess energy than to use medication to suppress it. Just as Sir Ken Robinson stated in his video: The Importance of Creativity, what if Gillian Lynn had been medicated and told to calm down? We wouldn't be able to enjoy her marvelous work today! <br /><br />I didn't notice any grammatical errors in your post. But in the event that I did I would choose to notify you by email. Although I know that either decision is arguable, I think that unless the criticism is a debate about the blog post it should be delivered by email.Lindsey Gipsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12559085135339654284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8544806338636836217.post-30977393717951701712011-09-07T10:37:42.231-05:002011-09-07T10:37:42.231-05:00Hello Meredith!
I didn't notice anything off ...Hello Meredith!<br /><br />I didn't notice anything off grammar-wise, so that's all good. The only problem I found that really stood out for me was that your paragraphs all began with "In this video..." and then continued into slightly different derivations of what we like to call the Portable Paragraph. Just be sure that when you are doing your posts that you take the time to vary the content and really get into what each prompt is about. We want you to be active in searching out answers and contributing to the discussion. I understand that this class is a lot of work and that everyone is really busy, but if you put in the extra effort, the reward is success. <br /><br />As for your content, I can totally relate to your position on creativity. I was one of those un-diagnosed ADHD kids, and my parents had to find ways to keep me occupied. Art really helped me to find a channel for that energy, and I was extremely lucky to go to schools that had great art programs.Bailey Hammondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17505691354665640718noreply@blogger.com
