It's Been A While

Dear Blog, I'm sorry I've been gone a while. We've had a crazy week. Let's recap.
Last week was a pretty fun week.
The week lasted Monday through Thursday because we all got to leave on Friday for SPRING BREAK!!
In the EZN class we worked on announcements and started a Current Events section that went over OK. We didn't have announcements on Thursday because we upgraded our technology. I'm excited to see how that goes. My kids tend to resist change but I think they'll like it eventually.

In our newspaper classes we had work days and I got to put in all of their grades. Most of my kids did really well. I had a few disappointing grades but I realize that it is THEIR choice to make, not mine to push. I also had a few students who really turned it around. That made me VERY proud that they were willing to push forward and make it happen.

In our composition classes we worked on historical fiction and social issues. I'm really excited about the next unit. I've already planned out the whole unit (of course, with Mr. C's help) and he said that I could take the reigns. I'm stoked because Mr. C is going to model the project on Monday and I'm going to model on Tuesday. I'm already pretty much done with my part. :)

In our yearbook classes we had FUN TIME!!! They got their book done and I am SOOO proud of them. It looks amazing. We had a party on Wednesday with food and dessert. It was really nice and I think the kids appreciated it.

So that just about wraps up last week.

This week is Spring Break and I can only hope that all my kids are being safe. I'm in Florida now, really enjoying everything. However, I am really ill. I went to the E.R. yesterday and found out I have severe bacterial sinusitis and conjunctivitis. But the doctor said it should clear up in 5 to 10 days.

Now I'm off to work on my LAMP.

Also, my best regards go to Terry for the loss of her mother. God bless.
