Day Twenty

1. Surprise Indian snack for breakfast, snack, lunch, and pre-dinner.

2. Spelling. I had the kids write sentences using words with the same rule, such as "My dumb thumb  is numb." One student wrote "A blue newt eats gooey poo"

3. Finishing the Ice Age. We are wrapping it up and I'm excited to move on. I think the kids have learned a lot. Or maybe they already just knew a lot, but they seem to be into what we are doing. I'm over it though. Time to get civilized.

4. Mean Hypatia? I was getting a little annoyed with the kids today and I started telling them "I don't want mean Hypatia to have to come out when we are doing something fun" One student said, "I've only seen Mean Hypatia once, and it was last year, for like two seconds" Ha ha! I thought that was cute. I feel like I'm mean all the time. I'm not sure if it is better that they don't interpret my behavior as 'mean' when I feel like I'm acting that way or if they don't take me seriously when I'm pissed.

5. Barry Brickell. Look him up.
