"Between the Pages" -- Period 1

Pssst. Hey, You. Pass It Along.

Dear Mr. "Between the Pages" Blog,

Sometimes I just have to admit that I'm impressed with my students and how hard to juggle their academic and personal lives most days.  And how enjoyable I find their ideas/responses to all of these writing challenges (even if they havent' figured out how to capitalize the word "i" yet!).

With that spirit in mind, I'm going to officially proclaim the "Between the Pages" project to be on vacation until the 25th of March (when my students return from Spring Break). 

At that point we'll kick off Week 8 of the project as the 4th Quarter starts.

Happy Spring Break, Mr. Blog!  We'll re-connect in 2 weeks.  Cheers, Mr. Long

P.S.

Hopefully my 1st period students will submit even more responses in Quarter 4!

Update on the TED Video That Wasn't Working

If you still want to do that TED video entry on the idea of a "cool" dictionary, the link is working now. Just scroll down the page and try the big link at the top of the entry. Sorry for the earlier confusion.

Even if you don't do the writing part, you might find the video interesting.
