Entry 13: I'm late, I'm late...for a very important date!

What a night! We just had our last, first home basket-ball game, I have to write an essay, and I'm going to the midnight premire of Harry Potter! I am very excited, so I just wanted to share that with everyone. :)
Now, in regards to Senior Project, I had a fantastic week this week! The kids explored props again today by making up scenes in which they had to incorporate their props! We have some work to do in some areas...but overall I was impressed! They were all so excited about it and kept on asking if they could do it again! They loved it! It really makes a teacher proud when the students are fully engaged in a subject and come up with things you didn't come up with yourself. I had a lot of good laughs this week! Also, I was so encouraged this morning because one of the moms of one of my students came up to me and told me how much her child was enjoying drama and how she really thought that he had found his passion! She also told me that she was looking into drama classes he would take part in the spring! I was stoked! My desire of my whole Senior Project was to share my passion with others and hopefully help kids discover their own passion. God is so good!
 I have done several corrections on my Research Paper, but I still have to find a lot of statistics to support my subject. However, it is ironic because I am taking AP Statistics this year and the whole class enforces the idea not to trust statistics. It makes me laugh, but I know I just have to look in the right place! I have a lot to do, but I know God never gives us more than what we can handle...I just have to remind myself of that every day!

  1. Absolutely! There is nothing so exciting to a teacher as when her students "get it"!!! I am glad you have experienced that!
    I think you can go ahead and put "write addendum to Senior project proposal" on your timeline!! You have started something with these kids I don't think you can stop!!

  2. :) I do too Mrs. Zion, I am strongly leaning towards that to the point where I have decided that's what I want to do! I'm very excited about it!
