If you happened to be in our classroom, these were some of the latest sounds you might have heard! What a rough week for our health! So many of us were out sick, came to school a little sick, or are getting sick. It's few and far between that I actually take a sick day...honestly. Not counting those "teacher days" that cause me to miss class occasionally, I think in my five years at Orange I've only taken maybe seven sick days....that's pretty good I think! Like you when you're out sick, there's always so much work to catch up on when returning. For me, it's usually grading, which I plan on doing this weekend. I did cancel my appointment at the gym this morning because I can't stop coughing - just like in class yesterday during the science quiz! With many of us getting sick, please take those extra few minutes to wash/sanitize your hands, cough/sneeze into your arm and not your hand, and bundle up! I think we should start to wipe down the desks and tables more frequently, too. Think we could work that into our closing routine??
How is everyone liking the electricity unit? I told you it would be fun! I'll make some time another day for building more circuits. You all have done a nice job in class the past couple of weeks, and we've gotten a lot accomplished. Way to go! Keep up the good work!
For once I'm short on words, so I'll stop here. Have a great weekend - see you next week as we say hello to February!!
