Classics Expo

Students,
The Classics Expo was great!  As Mrs. Cook's official photographer, I managed to get a lot of you with your project, but I didn't have time to get everyone.  Wow.  You really did a great job, and you read a classic piece of literature!  I have seen a creative side of you!  I am looking forward to your information brochures and PSAs with Relay for Life!








































Enjoy the pics!

Our Relay for Life Expedition Now Becomes Our Focus

Students,
We now are going to focus our energies on our Relay for Life expedition.  In ASE class we will learn more about how to join the team so that you have the option of spending the night at James River on May 19th.  We will be sending information home about this as the date gets closer.  Our first focus will be on researching cancer and creating informational posters or brochures.  Once that is done, we will begin making PSAs, getting the word out about cancer.  I will show you some PSAs from last school year that were outstanding.   Hopefully you will learn a lot about yourself and how one person can certainly make a difference.  Below you can watch an informational video about the Relay for Life program.


Stay posted for further updates as we get closer and closer to May 19th!

KMO Results Are In!

Congratulations to my KMO students for doing very well last Tuesday in the competition.  We almost beat our competition from Northern Virginia, but just 5 points!

Below are the results from Virginia.  We beat Midlothian and Manchester!


The next KMO competition is in March.  Can my new class top my first semester class?  Time will tell.

I hope that you had as much fun making these videos as we did in watching them!!!!

It's Been a Long Time! Biz World and KMO News!

Students,
Sorry for not posting more.  I will make it a point to be more current as we work our way into the second semester.

The BizWorld bazaar was on Friday.  Students will spend time in class this week "breaking up" their companies and discovering which group made the most profit.

Thank you Mrs. Cook's and Mrs. Moore's ASE classes for helping to chose the best video (Candy Bandz) and the best mall display (Spark)

Here are some pics below of each company.....
