Day 37 - LAST Monday!!

Today is the Ides of March. Et tu, Brute?
Also, more importantly, IT'S MY LAST MONDAY!!!! WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!! Because, if you haven't figured it out already, I really don't like Mondays.
Today Carrie and I arrived at school expecting to have a mobile computer lab for our students to use to continue their research and work on their projects. However, it seems that some other teachers are hoarding the labs and so we couldn't get on a schedule to use one. It would be helpful if we just had one or two classroom computers, but we are not so fortunate out in portable land. So, we got to tell our students that we did not have the mobile lab, as promised, and they would have to make do with the resources we had printed, and their textbooks. Some students had laptops with them that they could use, I let students use my own laptop, and I let a student use his iPhone to look stuff up, too. Many students decided to use their time wisely by planning their article or designing their magazine cover. Well, they get 100 more in-class minutes to work on it and then it is due by the end of the class period, so hopefully they use the rest of their time wisely, or put in some good time at home. The day didn't go quite as planned, but we made it work as best we could. When life gives you lemons, make something tasty, right?
