This well-written 3+ sentence response should reflect your experience accurately and with some detail.
Of course it is written well.

You may write more, I believe a Malcolm entry was cited  as an example of interesting deep thought.

Please find time to comment on 2 other entries; You can comment on a  group member entry OR someone from another group.  Your comment should MAKE A CONNECTION or offer a different perspective on what they wrote. It should NOT be that's cool or me too!

Let's make sure everyone gets a comment.

3 Gifts that were Plan Bs

What 3 gifts that were Plan Bs?  A Plan B is not a first choice; if it is a gift that means the Plan B worked out well....maybe better than your first choice.

1) "Teaching" When I thought about not working in an office, at first I thought I would go back to school to become a child psychologist. It "didn't work out."  WOW!!!!!! Am I glad!  I cannot imagine doing anything besides being the Room14er teacher.

2)  Visiting Ireland.  A few summers ago, I was supposed to go to Paris, but my friends changed their minds. So I joined another friend who was going to Ireland, where I met the nicest people in the world, heard the happiest music ever, saw castles and drank tea with biscuits!

3) A study trip to San Francisco at the end of the year.  Is a Plan B, but I think we are going to LOVE ending the year on this trip.  We will see........

Made using: Khan Academy Computer Science.




Hour of Code was certainly a good use of class time and brain cells.  Here are some of the skills incorporated in coding: writing algorithms (math!), problem solving, and thinking skills.
