I was most fortunate to get to go along with 2nd grade class to the Bowl-o-Rama to extend their learning about simple machines in science. They had so much fun, especially when they were taken bekind the scenes to see firsthand how the balls and pins are set back up. Truly a joy to be around them!
School, of course, has taken a serious note, as we are in Unit 9....the week that all the big projects are due. Many are stressing, but I have to say that I feel calmer and more in control than I did in my previous terms (3).
Part is due to aggressively working on things early (it really helped me!) and the other part I think has come the from the confidence (not foolish cockiness, mind you) that I built. The last several terms we have all proved that we are hard workers and can meet the deadlines. What can make each term more manageable, however, is our ability to continually make improvements to our study habits and organizational skills. Essentially learning to become better students......
I have enjoyed the blog and want to continue it, so hopefully will see at least some of my classmates again on the blogspot!~ Chrissy :)
