Had to drive to state college to pick up my son from the airport. He is home on leave as he transfers from Lackland AFB, San Antonio, to Warren AFB, Cheyenne.
Anyway, we introduced soil to the munchkins, today. They learned the definition of lithosphere, geo, regolith; the suffixes, logy, and, graphy, and the difference 'twix soil and dirt.
What's the difference? Dirt is simply, regolith, is nothing more than weathered and powdered loose rock, and soil is dirt with minerals and live and dead organisms.
The homework handout covers that material.
4-sight Testing
Tomorrow, we do reading 4-sight during 3rd and 4th periods. Section 61 - my normal 4th period class will meet after lunch. Oh, yeah, all sixth graders eat lunch from 11:10 to 11:40 a.m. Several of the sixth grade teachers will be in the cafeteria to teach our kiddoes proper cafeteria ediquette. It seems a handful of them are using the cafeteria as a track and many, many more seem to think normal conversation volume is to shout.
Have a great night, folks
