A delicious, delectable educational blog: "Making Curriculum Pop"

I love eating cake. As an English teacher, I also love toying with figurative language, specifically metaphors.

...What does this have to do with a blog?

The 2009 EduBlog Awards are upon us, and I need to nominate a particular site for

BEST GROUP BLOG
BEST RESOURCE SHARING BLOG
BEST TEACHER BLOG:

"Making Curriculum Pop" - the best cake I've had the pleasure to eat (online, in blog form).

---The moist, flavorful core: Making Curriculum Pop is not just helpful because of its vast amount of classroom resources, but you can actually USE these resources in class. All material is designed specifically to easily implement into any curriculum.

---The luscious icing: these are resources that students actually enjoy! They are relevant, witty, and actually accomplish the most important goal of teaching: making the curriculum relatable to our students.

---Even MORE sugary, gooey icing: the blog is incredibly user-friendly. Ryan Goble has set up a colorful and humorous platform to pass along meticulously planned "best practice" tips, information, and resources.

Are you hungry yet? I hope so.

Go eat some cake .
