During BCO....
Mrs. Culp, Mrs. Miller and I are trying to get students who are done with everything to do some hands on Math activities.
I gave Raj a complicated K'nex project, to which he assembled a team of other students to help him brainstorm and complete.
Students also build things like these....

Not sure what it is, but I'm pretty sure Alex will use it to hurt Sam. :) |
Friday Geocache Challenge.....
I had some past students come in after-school today. I love it when past students come in to visit. Evan (black shirt), Emily, and Trace (yellow shirt) came in and talked about how well they are doing at Jackson.
Evan its seems is breaking codes for the military.
Emily, on top of earning her PhD, is also representing her cousin Brooke in a Class Action law suite against her from DC Comics (seems that the name Supergirl is copyrighted).
Trace can solve a rubiks cube with his feet, which he does on the weekends as he travels from town to town performing on street corners.

Anyway..they are doing great!!
They are doing me a favor and hiding the geocache.
I'll warn you....they are a clever little bunch...Good luck!!
Thanks you three for coming in. It truly means a lot to me to hear from you....Have a great holiday.
