Well, this year is off to a quick start. Today in science class, we covered our books. It took a bit longer than I anticipated, but now these books will last that much longer , as they have super strong paper covers. The book socks too often are too small and don't protect the books as well as the paper does.
Last week went very fast. We got to play a game in class on Thursday where I held up a tool and the students came up with names and uses without knowing the real one. It is based on a game called Balderdash where you use vocabulary terms for the same thing.
More work tomorrow on the tools.
Sweet justice.
