OK CLASS OF 2012, WHAT DID YOU THINK OF TIC THIS YEAR?

Alex Barber (now at Lasalle Institue) checks the ph of the tankTIC (Trout in the Classroom) is in its 3rd year in room 211.  We are gearing up to release our fish this Saturday in the Halfway Brook near Hovey’s Pond and the program is comming to a close for the school year.  Let me know what you think of the program; what you liked, how could it be improved, etc. 

“Severe Storms”

Don’t hold back on your opinion.  What did you think of this activity in terms of learning about the different types of severe storms and how they are tracked/predicted/forecasted?

Cell phones in the classroom?

Many students use phones every day.  Many students use them in school aginst school policy.  Would they be practical in an educational setting?  What is your opinion on this idea?

“Hat Day”

Congratulations !!  Our QMS riased $350.00 for the Acid Rain Retirement Fund. Our student council matched the amount the fund raiser made giving us a grand total of $700. With this amount of money this group will now have the power to remove around 3 tons of pollution out of the atmosphere.  Currently a ton of pollution goes for a little over $200.00/ ton.  If you are interested in who is buying at auction see the following site.

Acid Rain Retirement Fund

acid rain photo.gifRead the link about the Acid Rain Retirement Fund.  As discussed in class we need to think of a feasable way, and I stress feasable (meaning manageable and appropriate) way to raise money for this fund.  What a way to contribute to the “Global Community.” This is an excellent opportunity that YOU have to improve our environment. Whatever activity we use to raise money, it will need to be approved by Mr. Silvernell.  Think, Think, Think.

Politically Correct Jokes

OK. Based on popular demand, I am creating a thread on “Jokes.” Obviously they will all be politically correct.
