All of a sudden it just occurred to me that this topic really never comes up when I teach students writing, and my students wrote in so many ways. I just wondered if they ever thought that what they wrote might be improved and more enjoyable if they chose just the right setting, just as you described, like a comfy chair, their bed, a desk, etc. Thanks for the input, definitely something to ponder as we start the year.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-21689719360874030722011-08-08T16:43:49.467-06:002011-08-08T16:43:49.467-06:00So interesting!

Also, I'm wondering if you mean different physical places or different on-or-offline spaces (e.g., a blog, a word document that will be printed off, a notebook, etc.)? If you're going to write for a formal audience, like parents for example, maybe you need a more formal physical place to do the writing, an office, or at least a desk. But do you start with the place or the purpose? So much to think about. . .Mardiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12237463317290624819noreply@blogger.com
