* This was Phil's first week of teaching grade six math. And guess what?! Arts and crafts were part of his lesson plans! I am hoping to stop by and participate in this artistic, yet math-y adventure next week :)
* In my classroom, this week marked the end of our electricity unit and we are starting astronomy on Sunday. If you have any FABULOUS ideas, send them this way please! I foresee some troubles making it extraordinary in a place with less-than-dramatic seasons and starry nights!
* Hockey playoffs have started! WA-HOOOOOO!
* I did FIVE boy push-ups in a row this week! YAHOO!
* Basketball is back on and Phil couldn't be HAPPIER. He held two try-outs this week after school and has a third this Saturday afternoon. It's amazing to watch the sports culture at our school change from "SOCCER, SOCCER, SOCCER" to "BASKETBALL, BASKETBALL, BASKETBALL". It seems as though many students are eager to become members of Phil's basketball family. I wish he could keep everyone - or have five teams :)
* The weather is SO NICE HERE! This morning I went with the Hussain's and Pat for a nice hour-long walk along the water. Phil enjoyed a nice hour-long sleep-in while I was out!
* Tonight we are heading to our friend Scott's house for dinner. Huffho's and Gemily will also be in attendance. Should be fun. We may even stay awake until the 10 o'clock's. Just like last night. Wooo! Striving for two nights in a row.....
That's about ALL. Until our grand outing this evening, our plan is to drink coffee, catch up on Idol & Survivor, and bake dessert! Grocery shopping and tutoring are DONE and out of the way!
