This blog will be a source of communication and instruction for my students while I am away on my fellowship in Nova Scotia. Daily discoveries will be posted and you are expected to post comments or questions in response to my post or someone else's post. You are required to respond to each post that I make. In other words, your grade depends on what and how often you post comments. Comments or questions must show that you have put some thought into it (comments like "cool" do not count).

1st Practice Post

Great job everyone!
I'm quite impressed with how well everyone did. You guys made it look simple, as though you had been doing this on a daily basis.

I really like some of your creative ways of keeping yourself anonymous to the public but letting me know who you are. :)

Please remember your class period! Some of you had schedule changes and now are in a new class period. Make sure you don't post to the wrong class.

If you notice that you share initials with someone else in the class, please try to come up with a way to make yourself known to me. You can use all of your initials or you can speak with me about another way to identify yourself (obviously without using your name).

Many of you have asked me to remind you when I'm leaving. I leave in APRIL. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!
Believe me, when the date gets closer, you will wish that you could forget about it.

Great job. We'll do one or two more practice posts before I leave just to be certain everything is ok.

Space Travel

Last night I watched a really cool show on the History Channel; it was about traveling in space.
The show was explaining where NASA was planning to go next and it also explained why we couldn't go certain places.
What really caught my attention was the next Moon mission. It will be in 2020. In 2020 you guys will be about 20 years old (possibly about to graduate from college). That means that you may have an opportunity to be on a mission to the Moon!
What does this mean to you?
