To show you exactly the kind of humor my kids bring everyday into my life, I now present "going into Edward-Mode,":
....to explain....my students are very inventive. Part of the reason I think the story appeals to students, especially male students, is the gothic / supernatural aspects of the stories (i.e all the really cool vampire and werewolf stuff). One day while passing out papers, I heard one of my students say, "oh nooooooo, he went into Edward-mode." I inquired immediately of course! They explained to me that Edward-Mode is just a term they made up for all of the abilities that Edward has that they wished they did: strength, speed, agility. Then they offered to show me exactly what they meant.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Please check back Sunday for my students answers to this week's questions. The questions for this week can be found in the post before this one! Keep posting, I know my students will love to hear your thoughts!!

Wow! Thats really cool! Haha, I wish my teachers in my school where as much a Twilight fan as you and you're students are! (Though my teacher did read Twilight, he isn't really a fan) I think thats really amazing! You rock! :D - Sara ( Yeah theres many of us)
That's hilarious if a teacher wanted to teach us this in Georgia all the crazy bible belt people would show up with holy water. Awesome idea keep it up!
This is a really GREAT idea! I only wish my teachers were so involoved when I was in school. Luckily, I homeschool and can teach my kids whatever they want to learn. Twilight just happens to be on the top of their list right now. Keep up the good work!!
Hey! I saw this on the Lexicon and thought I'd check it out. It so rocks my socks off! I wish teachers at my school would teach more modern stuff. I think more kids my age would read if the required reading in schools was more akin to their tastes. I'm a total bookworm, and I read the series in no time flat. I just wish more people my age read as... enthuseastically as I do so I could have more to talk to them about. Reading and surfing the web are my two great loves. Keep up the awesomeness! I can't wait to read more updates!
