Momma Folkman: I went to a small liberal arts college here in the Midwest called Millikin University. It was completely different from the town around it and people talked about the campus being the Milli-bubble. Inside the bubble was very academically focused. It was warm and inviting. Everywhere you looked, it was undoubtedly a college. You were surrounded by like-minded people. It was home away from home where you could learn, explore, attempt new things. When I think of my classroom, I want it to be like that bubble. I call mine the Book Bubble. I want students, teachers, administrators, and parents to walk into my room and know, undoubtedly, that it is an English room. I want books to be the first thing someone sees. I would not be offended if someone asked me if it is the school library. I want to fill my room with students who are book-minded. They don't always come to me that way, so I have to develop that. In this blog, I hope to explain how I attempt to make my own Book Bubble so that perhaps you can create yours, too.
