Racing Outside, Tomorrow
Sorry, the hallway racing is now over. No, I am not granting BASE or classtime to race in the hallway. I have been generous. Tomorrow, we are moving outside to race the cars on asphalt.
The Balloon-powered race car packet is due on Monday- that includes the questions.
Have a good night, folks.

Mrs. Antonacci Is Making Us Work!!
A full slate of parents coming in today to discuss their child's risk of failing sixth grade. I'm sorry to see so many children in that position, but, I'm glad to see parents are taking an active role in helping to ensure their child is graduated from sixth to seventh grade.
The title of today's blog comes from Mrs. Antonacci is the interim sixth grade team leader. She took it upon herself to organize the parent conferences today and tomorrow. I never really tell her how much I appreciate the extra work she does for this team. Perhaps, you could let her know her efforst really are appreciated -- even though PappaZ get annoyed sometimes. I guess we all do, when someone gives us commands and we just "don't wanna do it." Thanks, Wanita. You know I still luv ya, despite my grumbling -- but, then again, I'm an old man and we do that.
Get them race cars finished
Tomorrow we race in the hallway and Friday we are outside on the driveway. Which reminds me. How in the world do 100 kids go through 45 sticks of hot glue gun glue?
Have a great night, folks.

Hey! Z!! This ain't no 'ritin' class!
Okay, you conducted an experiment with friction. Now, I wanna know how you know water reduces friction. In other words, if you are going to answer such questions, be prepared to show evidence or support to what you are claiming. Gee, I feel like I'm teaching a class in language arts.
Outside for BASE
Well, I've been taking the cherubs outside during BASE and they just don't seem to appreciate it. We asked them to wipe off their shoes before entering the building. Mr. Bubb even went so far as to place a rug at the door. Still, a handful of kiddoes refuse to abide by our wishes and track mud throughout the hallways and classrooms. Then, when we call them in, several boys insist on continue playing until we are hoarse shouting them in. Perhaps, the children should earn the right to go outside? I know I am not too keen on doing that for a while.
Have a great night, folks.
