Today in history Abraham Lincoln was born. In class, we watched
Abraham Lincoln's biography. My 7th and 8th graders had a chance to watch this in class after getting to attend a Valentine's Day themed Art Class at
The Whistler House Museum. Their lives are pretty rough I tell you. And they get to do extra credit... and it was gym day... and there was a sub.... and likely a snow day tomorrow. Oh, to be in middle school.
Meanwhile, I encouraged my students to push themselves with their poems. What began as an assignment has turned into a moment for them to open their souls. I look forward to sharing all of their poems, and sharing my own as well as hearing the other teachers and just celebrating the day.
Hope the snow cooperates!!!!
:D Enjoy the snow day, guys!
