    This is a great tool to find out how different schools and districts in the area are ranked.

    This is neat. I see the school that I live by is ranked #434 and dropped 150 places from last year. It was interesting to compare it to the schools in the surrounding area.

    I will be doing my mentor program at this STEM school. I'm really excited to be apart of what they do there, very cutting edge.

    What struck me immediately were the school hours- 9:30- 4:00 would be a dream for my kids! As it is they are up at 6:30 and out the door by 7:10. Too early. That looks like a great place. What is your area? was it science?

    Nate what teacher are you working with there? My twins are both in Mrs. Kania's class. It is a great school!

    My mentor is Matt MacPhail, he is a 6th grade teacher. It's so cool what they do there as I'm sure you know first hand.

      I never did either but now that I think about the book, it really does show bullying behavior of making fun of the "duckling" and leaving him out. I just covered bullying again with one of my groups. Would you believe that all 15 girls have been bullied?

      I would love to read this again. Our daughter was a victim of bullying last year, it was miserable! It makes me mad as a parent but also very sad for the one who is doing the bullying. An eye opening experience.

      I love this book. My children love the Berenstain Bairs. It's great to see a fictional character go through these situations so they know how to handle it if it happens to them.

    I need to bulk up my library! This is a topic that needs to be discussed in schools on a regular basis to keep the topic fresh in their minds.

    Huckleberry Finn is now censored for school curriculum use
  • Kirstin Melaas on 06 Jan 11
     
    I listened on MPR's morning show when the Prof. who did this was on to discuss. I admit that I think it is not necessary to sanitize the language- while I understood the teacher who called in to say it would be nice to teach the book without addressing the "N" word, I think that addressing it is part of what the book has to teach. I'm curious if you caught any of that on MPR?
  • Loretta Worthing on 07 Jan 11
     
    I think it is so dumb to censor Huckleberry Finn. The book is a great read and a good look at how some people thought in those days. Might help us understand our history. Teachers can explain the background for students. I read something about this in the NY Times. Thanks for the post Nathan. I think this is an important topic for us to be thinking about.

    That is funny Jill! I get caught up in looking at deals too. In fact, right now I should be doing housework and on to school stuff and yet, I am couponing and goofing around on Diigo! Glad you liked the link.

    Isn't this a great sight! I am just starting to get the hang of couponing! My friend has it down to a science. I some how end up spending more! I'm working on it!

    This is a watercolor I painted last summer. I caught a sunfish one day and thought it was so beautiful that I had to paint a picture. They are amazing. So, I have been painting lots of sunfish.
