Guest Student Slicer - Trey

Yesterday I went fishing. Everytime I put a worm on, a fish would take it.

Later, I took my ATV (four wheeler) out for the first time this spring. I went to start it and it would not start because of the fuel went bad. So I put more gas in it but it still wouldn’t start.

Finally something went right that it turns out that the starter was loose. So we tightened it. We rode with Steve’s friends with four wheelers and dirt bikes for an hour.

A reflection. Then they will have a chance to eat slices of things we chose to bring for tomorrow.   Things like: slices of pizza, cake, oranges, apples, kiwi, bananas, and pineapple.

Today I feel somewhat overwhelmed.   We have less than 8 weeks of school left and so much to do.   I am working on a persuasive research piece with my students and today we began reviewing taking notes, paraphrasing and summarizing.   I gave the students some information about their topics so they could take some notes today and possibly tonight so I can help them with their notes tomorrow. I plan to review bibliography so if they are researching, they won’t forget to get the information they need for their bibliography.   It has helped students in the past; otherwise they get to the end and have forgotten where their information came from.   I give them a worksheet to keep track of the information in the correct order. Most of the students have chosen within about eight different topics.   They seem to be pretty passionate about their topic as I discuss it with them. I find as I talk with them and have their three arguments written down that they have a...
