LED Activity....



Parents, I would love to do a cool St. Patricks day activity with the kids that deal with LED's (light emitting diodes) and CR 2032 batteries. Unfortunately, it costs too much for me to purchase 60 LED's and 60 batteries.  If each student can bring in $1 it will help off set my own personal cost.  Your child will be able to keep both after they are done.

Thanks.



No Fed Ex Day Tommorow.....

I am canceling Fed Ex Day for tomorrow.  We need to refocus what we are doing for Invention Convention.  If you have supplies for your invention please bring them in, though I doubt we'll work on them.  We need to talk, communicate and brainstorm a few things with our partners.  

Right now, I equate our production during Invention Convention days to that of getting a truck out of mud. The engine is revving, the tires are spinning, and mud is kicking up and slinging itself all over the place......but...(In a southern drawl)  'That there truck, just ain't a budgin' '

Tomorrow, all the pushers need to stop pushing, wipe their brow, and think of a different way to get that bad boy out.

Extra Credit Due Tomorrow....

Make sure you get it to me by Math class.  You will not be able to complete it in BCO.

Math II Unit Retest Tomorrow...

If you look back a few days you'll see the review on this blog.  The answers are in the listing flder (tabbed up top).
