The Disney Tales

   "Okay, Alice could you please do me a favor and let Woody in," asks Mike nicely as Sulley starts to fall asleep again.
   "Okay sure," Alice says as she opens the door for Woody.
   "Howdy pardner, how ya' doin' on this very fine day?" says Woody bowing and pulling off his hat.
   "Howdy to you too Mr. -er- Woody," Alice says trying not to blush.
   "Anyway Mike, Sulley, kitchen, we need to talk," Woody says giggling as he walks into the kitchen pulling Mike and Sulley with him.
   "I don't understand why you can't just talk to us in front of the kids?" Mike says questioningly.
    "I do," Sulley rudely interrupts.
   "Because number one: who are those people? And number two: why are they here?" Woody asks flipping his head around to make sure Alice and Henry aren't looking.
   "They are two very nice twins and Sculley and I happen to be helping them wi-," Mike says before he interrupted
   "Sculley and I?" Sulley questions.
   "Yes, anyway what do you need to talk to us about?" Mike asks just as impatiently as Sulley was a minute ago
   "You'll see, just a minute," Woody says quickly.

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter 
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
 by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they 
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may 
 be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my 
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
