Oh, and Erin, we'll want pictures.
Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Damn, man. I slept until 2 p.m. I mean, I went to bed at 4 a.m., but still. That's 10 hours sleep. I guess I needed it.
So I flip on the TV, and Say Anything is on the We channel. I gotta watch it. I think it's required.
I just bought that movie for Emily. I think we should watch it too. I don't think we get WE.
Okey. I'll have someone take some tonight, and e them to me! I'll be in a dark gay/str8/Goth/swingers club dancing to 80's music (Kansas City clubs are...odd) so I don't know how well the color will show. But I'll try.
I have to go to a wake in 2 hours. BUt it's in a bar, so it should be a fairly jolly wake. Lot's of stories, beer, NSM crying and wailing.
Sadly, I must go to work. But at least going to work means Matt gets to play with Nic without feeling guilt because he could be with me. actually right now, I'd like to take a nap
I am planning a lesson with quilt squares and construction paper to teach area of quadrilaterals. Do we think the (high school) kids will feel talked down to, or will they appreciate having manipulatives? I will be proving the Pythagorean Theorem, so they shouldn't feel too talked down to.
Of course they won't feel talked down to. They will love having quilting as manipulatives. I mean, who wouldn't?!
shoot, I was at a training session a few years ago that included Legos as part of a demonstration. We loved it.
I think it is a great idea, Emily. I always prefer something tangible while learning a new concept.
We forget how much high school kids are still KIDS. They love working in groups, and in math, they really appreciate anything that isn't chalkboard/paper work.
Go for it.
