Homework:

2. Kathy Gibson asked us if we would return to her students' writing on the blog. I blogged this on March 2, so you will find a link to their work. Please respond to at least two or three student. Make sure that each student receives feedback.

3. Bring an extra copy of your I-search for Casey's class.

Since I taught my in-class lesson, when do I need to turn in my relfective commentary? I am a little scared to it watch it! I did make complete copies of my lesson plan and documents to hand out next class though.

I thought Zak was a great addition to the class. He gave us some great ideas on how to spice things up for all students.
