Main Report or Narrative:
The Book Previews project is picking up again, since the nice new podcast format makes the updating less awkward. I think I sorted out all of the weird mismatched files that students had left on Mrs. Jacobson's computer, so that should be all up to date soon.

Mrs. Jacobson's after school group took a field trip to the Robie House on Thursday, so on Wednesday I took them in small groups and showed them how to use a digital camera. The kids had a lot of fun with it and they asked some good questions about the mechanics of cameras. On Friday I saw the pictures they had taken, and they were really proud of them.

I checked with Mrs. White about her ABC project, and she's thinking of doing a powerpoint presentation with audio, video, and image clips. She wants some help collecting the source material, but I think she'll be okay to put most of the presentation together herself.

As a fun side project, Mrs. Jacobson wanted to relabel some of her boxes of books, so I spent some downtime making a cute little label set on Wednesday, too.
