This writing prompt is so short and simple, and yet it is so creative and beneficial. My students made the best stories, and we ended up typing the stories and making them into a book. I love this prompt, love how you used the senses to get them to relate, and I love the overall flow of my students' stories. Before we made our stories, I read the book "The Girl Who Loved Wild Horses" by Paul Goble. The book was helpful in drumming up feelings and writing a great story. Thanks again :)

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
Christina DiSalle (TpT Seller) re: Esperanza Rising Courtroom Trial Rubric
Why is the Esperanza Rising Rubric file titles "Are You Surprised?"
February 18, 2013
Get2theresource (TpT Seller)
Thanks for your question. That is very strange. The title of the file is the same as product title but with .pdf at the end of it. I have no idea why your computer is saying thats the title. I tried downloading it myself just now and it says the correct title.

megbauer re: Descriptive Essay Writing Process (with differentiation for GATE)
I tried several times, but I was not able to download the the Descriptive Essay..... document. It came up as jibberish!
January 24, 2012
Get2theresource (TpT Seller)
I am so sorry to hear you are having problems downloading the document. I will check to see what is going on and if needed try sending you another format. I will try to get back to you by this evening. Thank you.
***update** I don't have your email to contact you directly, but it is a pdf file so should be compatible with any computer. Do you have the latest version of Adobe acrobat to read pdfs?

I downloaded/bought your packet, but am wondering about the answers to the questions (ie: the fill in the blanks for your definition of an epic, etc...) Please send the answers to: blnickerson@comcast.net Thanks so much.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have had teaching experience in Los Angeles County and in Orange County, CA. I also have cooperating teaching experience in Santa Barbara and the American Embassy International School in India. I have taught Grades K, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 as well as having pre-professional student teaching experience with Grades 1 and 4. As many other teachers discover, I rapidly realized that I needed to create supplemental curriculum that would meet the needs of ALL my students -- I have taught in a general education setting with students that have been identified as Gifted, English Language Learners, Autistic, as well as students who are various types of learners (mostly visual and kinesthetic).
MY TEACHING STYLE
In addition to trying to reach the needs of ALL my students, I also try to help my students appreciate each other's diversity and incorporate multicultural education as well. This stems from my experiences of living overseas for most of my life and traveling to over 20 countries.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
I have a Masters in Education focused on strategies to increase Reading Comprehension as well as a Multiple-Subject teaching Credential from the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). I also have a Bachelors degree in English and Anthropology from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
I have served as a GATE coordinator and Language Arts Department Chair. When I was a student-teacher, I helped establish a Family Literacy Program at a school in Santa Barbara. I also have created a blog with ideas and resources for teachers called Get to the Resource. This can be reached at http://get2theresource.blogspot.com/
