Cut and Paste Revision -Arrgh!

In thinking back on the day and taking in what everyone said about the revision activity. I can see where it could be a beneficial activity in some respects but at the same time it could really impact in a negative way some of my students. I really did not think I would be affected in the way that I was by the revisions made to my paper and I did not feel bad taking the paper I was working with and rearranging the order. I saw it as maybe helpful to the writer, but it did not feel that way when it was mine. I kinda felt like a 2 year old. Mine, mine, mine, and how dare you mess with it. But now that we are several hours away from the activity I just feel like I need to put on my big girl panties and look at it from that perspective and then move on! And I can always know that it will be all good!!!
