Thank you memos

I just love one thing about the end of a quarter. A few of our Using Tech. teachers give their students an assignment to write a "Thank you" memo to one of their teachers. It always makes me smile to find one or more of those memos in my mailbox. Often the kids write silly things like "you never give us much homework" but every once in awhile I get a very well thought out and kind memo like "you always look for ways to make learning fun."

This year, Metronet has helped me find several ways to keep learning fresh and fun. Not only do I appreciate that fact, but my students have noticed too.

P.S. Travis and I have a not so friendly little on-going memo competition on which one of us gets the most. It's pretty funny actually. I'm ahead this quarter. :)
