I just want to report that Sydney Gilman-Dye is our first student reporter. Today Sydney came in at lunch and we looked over her COPIOUS notes which she has diligently been taking in all her classes. She did a fantastic job of writing down what lessons were all about, quoting kids and teachers, and nailing specific details. We were then able, using the questions I have posted in our last entry, to make a loose outline she can work with in order to compose her thoughtful (and funny!) blog...hey, you never know what can happen when you bring a puppy to school....
Anyway, Syd's going to write her blog over the weekend (she doesn't like writing but I think she might surprise herself with how much she has to say; she had fantastic material to work with and she's already made some gorgeous connections between all of her classes. Notes, people, notes!!!) We will edit between Monday and Wednesday and then we'll have our blog up and running. Please show your support and join our conversation by asking questions, leaving comments, and even watching videos we may post (like the TED talk Mr. Zargar showed earlier this week). This is our way of including our community in our classroom, and we are super excited to get your feedback.
As Michael Douglass once said, "Green is Good."
(Well, maybe he said "Greed." I think we should probably change it.)
Have a beautiful end of the week, everybody!
See you at Homecoming,
Ms. L
(almost like MSEL. Coincidence?)
Syd has been busy taking note on the connections that we have discussed in class. I look forward to her blog post :)
