Bad Moon Rising

Tomorrow the kids have two tests--one biggie and then just a Spelling test. If your child is in my Math class, they also have a Math test! The kids took home study guides for those today (or they were offered--several are still on the table). Make sure the kids at least look over the map and that you quiz them on their states and capitals, because they don't want to be faced with that maddening ONE state they just can't remember.

Oh, and ask them about the towers of tape and newspaper. A strange confluence of events took a science experiment intended for tomorrow and sent it one day into the past. We did it today, to limited success. But as the kids learned, sometimes that's how the best lessons are learned--kids and adults alike.

That's all for now. The kids have been REALLY chatty today. I suspect that behind all those clouds there's a full moon just happily sending its crazy vibes down to us.
