August 26th

Today we are continuing with getting the classroom up and running. We are going to complete a short activity that helps with getting to know the textbook and how to best use it. We will then grade that activity in class. Today we will also first introduce our cooperative learning teams and do a short activity with that group to help us get to know the group better.

The first day was outstanding, hopefully the rest of the year can be close to the same.
