The “idea books” were a hit with the AP students – we shared them yesterday. Really creative and very personal. The students created the books on their lives, who influenced them, how they got to where they are in life, etc. I don’t think they would work in my less cohesive classes. The sharing could be emotional.
We finished playing the Julius Caesar games. Hands down the most creative was a variation of twister. The player choose a color, but the opposite team chose the category (marked on the row of colors) and if the player got the question wrong, which body part to use. The player had to be very calculating on their choice of color and know all categories. Or be really flexible.
Graduation is tomorrow. I wish I could say that I’m looking forward to it, but the controversy over the stinkin’ honor cords is putting kinda a damper on it for me. We came up with a compromise, but we’ll see how it goes over. Luckily, the ceremony is held near my house, so I can make a quick escape.
