There has been a great deal of lurking and looking at other blogs. It seems clear that as a class you need to be committed to taking your work seriously before posting for all to see. I think we are ready for that challenge. Take a moment to reflect on your school experience. What is an important lesson about learning? Do you think it is more important to get an A or to have a true understanding of a concept? Is it okay to "forget" the information after a test or should you strive to learn it well enough that you can recall it later?
Think...
Does each student have a blog? I have a lot of students who are studying to be teachers and they want to comment on student's blogs. Just let me know and we will get involved!

I loved learning about the culture/traditions that Father Erasto told us about. I can't wait until we can hear more about it on Wed.

The Kite Project is very exciting! I can't wait to interact with Tanzanian students. It will be interesting to learn about their view of the world and what they are like.

I am very excited to do the Tanzanian kite project. I want to learn all about the schools there. I also want to see how they think about the world. I also hope they send or draw a picture of their classroom. This is the coolest project I have done in my years at St. Christopher's and I hope it is a great sucess.

I think the RIP words idea is awesome. I think it will expand our vocab and help us get rid of "dead words". My word was love. it is retired by adore and cherish. Love is a strong word but is also a "dead wor" sometimes. I love the dead word idea.
