I never knew I could or even would do it but it&#8217;s been a great experience for me. Writing is a great way to reflect on what I&#8217;m learning and what I&#8217;m struggling with but sharing, having people respond to what I&#8217;m writing, and responding to what others are writing has been the best part of all this.<\/p>\n<p>The top 20 blogs of 2010 got from #1, 2017 hits, to #20, 340 hits. But there were a bunch that are my favorites that only from from 284 hits to 94 hits and I&#8217;m including them here cause they mean something to me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/11\/27\/feedback-with-google-forms\/\">Feedback with Google Forms<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/12\/04\/sharing-learning-expectations\/\">Sharing Learning Expectations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/06\/30\/reflections-of-2009-10\/\">Reflections of 2009-10<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/03\/06\/do-grades-help-or-hinder-learning\/\">Do Grades Help or Hinder Learning?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/11\/09\/quick-and-dirty-inquiry\/\">Quick (and Dirty) Inquiry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/03\/20\/change-in-grading-policy-for-mr-gs-science\/\">Change in Grading Policy for Mr. G&#8217;s Science<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/12\/18\/wa-stem-grant-proposal\/\">WA STEM Grant Proposal<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/12\/06\/inquiry-for-teachers\/\">Inquiry for Teachers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/12\/06\/formative-process\/\">Formative Process<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/12\/12\/finding-microorganisms\/\">Finding Microorganisms<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/02\/21\/plns-and-plcs\/\">PLN&#8217;s and PLC&#8217;s<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/08\/22\/classroom-management-communication\/\">Classroom Management<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.educatoral.com\/wordpress\/2010\/12\/18\/small-successes\/\">Small Successes<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve seen many of my favorite bloggers putting together a list of their top blogs from 2010 so I thought I&#8217;d do the same.
