Well Spring is in full swing and so in the CSAP. While it is nice for the kiddos to have a chance to show the world how brilliant they are, I do miss seeing them all!
Unfortunately, I will not get the chance to see many of the eighth graders much this week. In the limited time that we have, we will be learning about one of the most famous authors in all of history. Yes, that's right, the Bard himself . . . William Shakespeare! We will be learning about this incredible man so that we may better understand the base for our next unit, Romeo and Juliet.
Luckily, I get to see all of my seventh grade classes this week, and we will be doing some pretty exciting stuff! One class will be stretching their creative muscles to invent an island and then . . . strand themselves there! They will then have the chance to write about their experience while stranded in this perils place! Another class will be finishing up their "Unity Project." A truly wonderful experience indeed. Lastly, another class will be returning to their reading of Anne Frank. Just like an old friend, it has been too long since we have heard from her.
What a week!
