Another quiet, productive day. We gave a second chance at last week’s spelling list for most of the class. Many improved significantly. We started the “Louis Braille: The Boy who Invented Books for the Blind” story in Open Court. We will finish it tomorrow. We worked on the our History packets.
At the Tech Center we used the Stellarium and Fish programs. The former really tied in with some of the Greek mythology we had been studying as we readied ourselves for the Getty Villa. We met in read-around groups and helped each other edit and revise our rough drafts. We played softball again. We corrected out math and talked about “fairness” as a mathematical term.
The cannas outside the room seem quite happy this year. Big thanks to our students for helping to keep our patio and beds so nice.
Homework: (1) Do the final draft of the story. This should be accompanied by a picture. (2) Do “More about Probability,” Math, pages 572-573 and “Test for Fairness” pages 874-575 in the same book.

Flowers are happy outside Room 19!
Makes up for my generally poor luck with houseplants, I suppose.
