G's Curiosities

Formerly titled G's S.T.E.M. Blog.  I realized that my learning has moved beyond science, tech, and engineering, and into a larger buckets of design and education systems.  I wanted a title that reflects my core value and my current state of learning.  So welcome to G's Curiosities.

#30DaysofLearning Days 19/20 - Name That Tune ASL #3

1/7/2018

Before I write about this week's Name That Tune in American Sign Language Game, I want to write a little about Day 19.  I spent some time at work on Saturday checking in with my District's Saturday school and stopping in at a Parent Engagement event at another school.  I spent some time at the event with my FABULOUS co-worker, toni.

She doesn't really know this yet, but she is fast becoming my questioning coach in my learning journey.  She has an amazing talent at framing even the most awful things in brilliant ways, usually through questioning moves.  It really blows my mind how talented she is in this arena.  

I have been trudging through Mary Shelley's Frankenstein for a while now.  Man this is a tough read for me.  But it is one of Dwight's favorite books, and I am going to finish it, no matter how long and painful the process is.  As always, when I was feeling frustrated with the read, toni maneuvers me to a better place with questioning:
What if Frankenstein was a musical? Would you like it more?
Now, suddenly, I'm seeing this book in a new light.  What songs would be sung?  Which topics would make for a good comedic tune to engage the audience?

I appreciate you, toni.  You rock my world.  If you want to read some of her words, check out her blog, Gold Tokens.

Now, on to Day 20's Name That Tune in ASL, week 3.  This week's tune is dedicated to toni and a conversation we had this weekend while musing over the families that joined us for our weekend event.  I hope to hear more from people about this one.  

And take a minute to appreciate someone today.  Someone that helps you to be a better version of yourself.  Someone that makes you smile and laugh.  Someone that helps you shift perspective and see things differently.


As always, if you can't get to YouTube, you can see this week's video on Vimeo by clicking HERE.
