1. Math Geometry Quiz 2.0 on Line Symmetry and Congruent Figures..
2. Think of three topics you wonder about and might be interested in researching to do a "Story Of Stuff" project on. We viewed the Story of Stuff video online today. It can be a controversial film -- Annie Leonard has some strong opinions. We talked about perspectives before, during, and after the film, and I reinforced that it is possible to disagree with some of her conclusions. She does present some persuasive ideas and the practice of inquiry strongly lends itself to this topic. showed some samples of finished projects today and we will keep going over the topic until students have a good understanding of what is required and how to produce it. As yet there is no firm due date.
3. Diapers or donations. We have contributed 662 items so far, and I received over $100 today in donations to buy more. Amazing! I am reinforcing the notion with students that the reward for the effort is secondary to the altruism of doing a good deed for someone in need. This activity has had some real traction with our class. Many thanks again.
