One Week Down

Well we have one week finished for the 2007-08 school year. Already, I'm behind schedule. I had a goal of writing every day. However, I've been exhausted after each day of school. I think we had a really great week. My students did a really good project called the "4 Corners of Me." Basically they were to put in each corner of a piece of paper a word or picture that reflects their personality, their favorite place, their most memorable moment, and their favorite food. I've been really impressed by some of their work. Some of the students did their projects in PowerPoint and emailed them to me.

Upcoming Week

Well, this past week, we spent most of the in a "get to know you" mode. Next week, we will jump into the content of our course--People, Places and Cultures. I have a bunch of projects floating around my head that I'm excited to see the students begin working on. Last year, I applied for a tech. grant to get some new video cameras and a digital still camera. We now have 3 digital stills, and 4 digital camcorders. I guarantee they'll be put to good use.

Sports Update

It's that time of year at Loyalsock--the Fall sports' season has begun. Our girls' tennis team is off to a great start. I believe that they are 3-0. The football team travels to Crestwood tomorrow night--don't think I'll make that one. And, our boys' and girls' soccer teams begin their seasons in Clinton County Commissioners Cup (Boys) and the Montoursville Tournament (Girls). I still can't believe that I won't be on the sidelines this year for the boys' soccer team. Good luck to all!!!
