First Day of School















Are these kids having fun? Who can resist M&M’s? The first lab I did was one involving M&M's. The kids have to use a balance scale, make some calculations, and draw graphs. These skills will be used later to study Earth chemistry, rocks, and minerals. This is a picture of me and a big statue in the courtyard. I think the statue might be Confucius. Does anyone recognize the big stone guy?

    Dear Dr. Write,
    Who are you? I can't spell either, its because English makes no sense. The kids are 16 or 17. Here it is called senior 2.

    I'm daughter #3. I took my picture off my blog because I'm worried about my anonymity.
    But you know me. I thought you knew I was Dr. Write.
