Main Report or Narrative: Gmail was filtering my reporting reminder to my spam box, so it's totally slipped my mind to do reports the last few weeks. Sorry! 

At Till, I've been working on a project for the third graders who are doing online research for a monthly project. October was dinosaur month! I combed Mrs. Jacobson's resources and found the 10 most relevant, accessible sites and saved them on a del.icio.us account, so that students wouldn't need to type them out individually or try googling on their own (both of which can quickly reach catastrophic intensity very quickly with third graders). There will be one such site each month (I might work something out with tags to minimize redundancy) linked from a collective that students will be able to access through Mrs. Sudduth's Student Resource page. Less typing for third graders=less headaches for teachers. I talked to Mrs. White about the project, too, and I think she'll be working with the site as well.

I've been working on the CUIP news site here and there also-- once-weekly super-secret basement-bunker meetings with Shaz and Joe to coordinate resources and plans.

What’s playing now?: Pixies, clearly.
