Holiday Greetings
It was the stretch before Christmas,
And all through our blog house
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even a mouse.
Bytes were left hanging in rows of sleepy storage,
As holidays minds turned to hot, tasty porridge.
But back in the cozy Boston workshop,
The TR Elves are all ahop and aflop,
They’re building the new zippy HELP scheme
That will make creating more a Web 2.0 dream.
So, New Year’s projects will tumble and flow,
Out of student head’s like cookie dough.
And we’ll all newly awaken
To share our best pedagogical baking,
And have our blog house rocking and quaking
With our New Year’s Building Learner’s show.
The best holiday delights to you from the TR Elves!

Happy Holidays to all of you and thanks for all the great ideas you have passed along…I hope to have time over our break to get control of all these new ideas floating around in my head.
See you in 2009. Sue
Happy Ho-Ho-Holidays to all. Like the rest of you, I am scurrying about like a manic elf these days and look forward to a few days to reflect back on the year once the mania simmers down a bit. The BLP is definitely one of the things I will look back on positively in 2008 (and ahead in anticipation of a terrific 2009). I even wrote a “seasonal” post on my editor’s blog, in case anybody from BLP wants to see it. It’s not nearly as clever as TRintuition’s “stretch before Christmas,” though.
Here’s my wish to all: Stay warm, keep the brains “fired up,” and enjoy the time with family and friends this holiday season. The things we are not buying this year will not even be missed, but the time with people we love is the richest experience, indeed.
