Hi there. Are you sitting at your work desk, bored with the mundane paperwork and company-wide emails that fill your 40-hour week? Is this your moment of solitude while the little ones watch "Phineas and Ferb" for the 100th time this week? Well never fear, things are NEVER dull in Mrs. Self's classroom!!!
Some highlights from 1st period today... (yes, all of this happened before 9:15 in the morning)
~We started the day by doing the wave (to represent how only energy, and not matter, travels in waves)
~I squeezed in a 10-minute lab after notes before my juniors had to leave to register for the ACT
~This lab involved pouring water into aluminum pie plates, which we all discovered together (oops!) had holes in them... good thing I was quick on my feet and ran across the hallway to get some acrylic boxes from the stockroom!
~My 8 (yes, 8) remaining sophomores and seniors continued to work quietly until a guy and girl decided to curse each other out
~After that situation was remedied, the room was silent and tense, so Bill Nye to the rescue!
~At the end of class, a student came up to my desk to get birthday ideas for her mom (whose bday is tomorrow) and I got to discuss the deliciousness that is Hibachi food with the rest of the students
Happy Friday, folks! May you have a day full of crests and troughs (little wave humor there) that makes you appreciate the weekend all the more!!!
