Junior and Senior English with Mrs. M

More and more tech bugs get worked out each day and we run smoother every day.  I hope you are getting good use from your tablet pcs. 

YEAH!  We survived the first week of back to school! 

All of my students now have a tablet pc, how cool is that? 

I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to learn how to best use this new tool in our classroom.  Friday was our first attempt at DyKnow and we learned about network bog downs.  But, by the afternoon, DyKnow was running pretty darn quickly. 

Stay safe this weekend!  See ya Monday, Mrs. M.

You’re excited for the new school year, right?  Right?  Just a little bit? 

I am VERY excited for the school year.  For reals.  Why?  Well, thanks for asking.

1. You are all going to walk into my classroom with a tablet PC … how COOL is that?  We are practicing patience, right?  And, when things crash and bugs show up we all have a calming mantra, right?  And, we are not going to complain about system glitches because we understand that it takes time to work some of those network things out, right?  AND, you are going to be happy and responsible laptop owners, right?  RIGHT?  Right.  Exactly.  That’s what I thought!  Do you KNOW how lucky you are to be in an educational setting like this, you are very lucky.  I know you will make the best of this opportunity.
2. I get to see my seniors, again!  Yeah!  We had a good year as juniors, didn’t we.  The ‘09 seniors are a great group of students and I’m glad I get to see all of them in my classroom again.  I predict this year’s group of Sr. Projects to be at the top of the list.  Seniors 09, I look forward to working with all of you again. 
3. I get to meet a whole group of new students.  And, I’ve heard good things about the incoming juniors.  Yep, Mrs. W bragged on you a bit.  I’m expecting great times as we go through our novels and writings and projects.

Welcome back, Students!  I’m glad to see you! 

Toodles, Mrs. M.
