Yesterday, I drove Janna to Auburn, Alabama, about three hours each way. It was a beautiful day for it and of course we talked a lot. She was taking some student teachers to see a school there, which is all kindergarteners, about 30 classrooms of them! They are doing some really cool work there, letting the kids design their own learning. So, for instance, one class was working on China. They learned about panda bears. They voted whether they would fly or take a boat. They all had jobs (pilot, ticket taker...). They wrote about it (using invented spelling). And they use technology, too (smart boards). I loved it.

I got back just in time for Games Night at UUFA. I won the Scrabble game and did pretty well in Boggle too. (Ray made supper). It was 90 degrees!
