Celebrating Comments

I can't wait to see you tomorrow. It looks hopeful that we can really devote some time to answering our comments. I have some tally sheets ready for you that will expedite the process. We have been hearing from Canada, China, and many different states in the U.S. A class in China has connected with us. They will be interesting to network with and we will learn a lot from each other. Remember your comment starters - you may want to try using some of them and let your commenters know how much you appreciate hearing from them.
