I came to know about the book on Six-Word Memoir last week, and you came out with the video clip in 2008, really advanced! Bravo to your students and also you, as a teacher, for trying new things with the students. It’s really nice ^_^
my six words:
tattood and beautiful, still have brains
i really like how your class set the pictures to their 6 words. i go to a vo-tech school so i dont get to do fun writing assignments anymore its all work based
ya…
Thanks for watching and reading my student’s work. Their work thrives on an audience. Even when some members do not like what is created. At least you read and responded. Try writing one yourself and you might see the power of the exercise. (Remember, it is only a writing exercise to help students hone their writing skills and have some fun playing with words).
what is the name of this song? it’s not the kinks, as listed at the end of the movie
wow these were awesome..we just did 6 word memoirs in class today and it is amazing what we can express with just 6 words
Mr. Wright, Could you post this to teacher tube so I can use it as an example in my class? They have youtube blocked. Loved it.

Here’s my six words:
I was immature at every age.
Hello All!
Great job on the video.
I want to do something similar with my 7th Grade English Class.
How did you all pull this lesson off?
How long did it take?
Any info you may have will be very useful.
Thank you!
