Trillions of Cells

I am completely amazed by what goes on inside each of the trillions of cells in our bodies. Take a look at this short cell video to see the animation of this wonder.

Happy Summer!

Hello to all of my new students and to any of my former students who are visiting! I hope everyone is enjoying their summer...I would love to hear about what you have been up to if you would like to post a comment below (just click on the "comments" link below, write your comment and post - you may click "anonymous" if you wish since you do not need an account to post a comment). Summer is short so appreciate every minute...read, play, relax!

Descriptive Language

Post a comment with an example of some of the figurative or descriptive language you used in your long comp on Tuesday. How creative did you get?

Here's my example: "The first week of August hangs at the very top of summer, the top of the live-long year, like the highest seat of a Ferris wheel when it pauses in its turning." from Tuck Everlasting, by Natalie Babbitt

Pavement Drawings

Believe it or not, all of these drawings were done on flat pavement but give the illusion of being 3-D...amazing! Search for Julian Beever online to see more. Wow.

Capable of Evil

After today's discussion, I want to know what you think. If you knew Tucker and Anvil, which one do you think you would be more likely to be friends with? Who is more evil: Tucker or Anvil? Why?
