Four days in and we're still tightly focused in on our goals for this semester. We're going to have to be if we're going to get it all done in time. We've been accomplishing a lot during each day. I'm having fun teaching more science now (it's been too long!), and we've had some good discussion with the slavery issue.
Remember tomorrow is the Spelling test and the Caesar's English quiz.
I told the kids today that they need to be running some ideas through their heads for Monday. On Monday they need to have ten to fifteen ideas written down for the big research project. I told them today that this is due in mid to late March, and that we would be doing it one step at a time, one lesson at a time. By the end of this project, I want the kids to be proud of the work that they've accomplished, and feel like they were pushed.
Gotta run now. More later! Enjoy the snow! You know, a snow shovel is a lever, so it can tie into a science lesson for the kiddos.
