Is this sign language?

So. First day fun, eh? My favorite question for the day was 20 minutes into a class a kid asked, "Is this sign language?" Which makes me wonder, did I use my hands a lot or something? Why else would the kid have sat there for 20 minutes? And just to give them a little credit, the Sign Lang. class is next door so they were very very close. ;)

What did we learn today students? ......cyber silence......

Ok. I will just tell you then. We learned that history is fun and great! Right? Ok.  If you didn't learn that yet, I will just let you in on what we really need to know from the day. What is a "primary resource?" What is a "secondary resource?" And why does history really matter? 

Don't forget that I gave you a Class Information sheet for your parents to sign. If you already lost it, or left it at school, or whatever, I have one linked on the first page of this blog. This is due tomorrow. And last but not least, read and get ready to begin your Student Timeline project which will be due September 11. Did you misplace that too? Well, I am feeling friendly and will post that here too. I will put that on this page. Look over there to the right...do you see it? Good. Now read it. And get ready to start it. Or start it now if you want. 

See you all tomorrow. See if you can post anything here. If you can't I will need to fix the settings tomorrow.

Hello Semi Tech Savvy Hunter. I do need your help. I have this pretty convoluted way to add my word documents as a link to my web pages but I am trying to make it "prettier" and simpler. Any tips?
