"More Blogging!" says Divya....

I saw the comment from Divya that said, "could you blog a little more often?" I guess she means, could I talk to you on the blog more. I usually do it a few times a week....but, if you're looking for it, Divya, here it comes!!!!

I hope you're all having a great weekend on this nice, cool Saturday... I've spent the day indulging in my family and doing things around the house. Sounds exciting, huh? Well, it is for me! Any of you guys seen Captain America, yet? We saw it last night, and my family loved it. Action + patriotism means the Morton men (my husband and sons) are going to love it.

I am spending tomorrow grading the map tests from the Tennessee test. I hope they turn out as great as your multiple choice tests did. As a whole group, I'd say you performed very well on them. I was really happy with how excited you got from seeing the grades so quickly on the new scanner. You all were so funny...but, then, you frequently are....

Has everyone gone on the blog and looked at the entire pep rally movie yet? I'm getting ready to take it down, so make hay while the sun shines if you want to see it. John Lyons' mom is sending me some football pix and I'm going to make a movie out of those, as well.

I really can't wait to start the next unit with you guys. I think this one is actually going to be exciting - I can't wait to hear what your ideas are about pollution, the environment, global warming, etc. There are so many things in this unit to make you reflect deeply about what each and every one of us can do to improve the world we live in. I've got some fun activities for us to do, and some great songs and videos to make you think. I'm going to be interested to see how well you like the topic.

I've checked the other blog links of our's that have polls. Everyone has still not voted in the polls. If you haven't done so yet, please get it done.

Okay, I think I should have satisfied you little Divya. Have a good weekend, all. See you on Monday!

Mrs. Morton
