How old school is high school?

So now that we have officially entered the 21st century with our blogging, let's talk about all the cool gadgets that exist now. Cell phones have the internet, thousands of songs can be saved on a teeny tiny little iPod, oh and sure, why not be able to have a face-to-face conversation with your brother/sister/friend that is across the country/globe. There is so much crazy technology out there now, but do you get to use it while you are at school? I know that I don't use much (and yes, graphing calculators count as technology!), but I'm curious about your other classes. Do you're other classes use all this fancy-schmancy technology? Do you wish that your teachers used more technology? Would it make school more interesting and relevant for you?

**P.S.  You will probably need to post a little more than 2 sentences this time....like maybe even a whole paragraph (GASP!). I want this to be like a conversation, and spark some inspirational thoughts!

Snow Days: Good or Bad?

In light of having 4 snow days in a row (yay!), I want to know what you think about them. We've got a lot of material to cover, and now we have 4 less days to get it all done in! It might not seem like that much time, but think about how much we cover in a week! I would like to know if you think the snow days are good or bad, and an explanation for why you think that. Please feel free to comment on each other's posts as well Remember, play nice!

Post any pictures of the snow you have too!

Welcome to the 21st century!

Hellllloooooo students!

So this is new to me, and I have no idea if you have ever blogged either, but I'm going to be running a little experiment. Blogging is the future, and so we're going to see where it takes us now! You'll be asked to respond to a post that I've put up once a week, and also to respond to other students' posts. You'll be on Facebook anyway, so just come on over for 15 minutes or so to see what's going down!
