<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>

Monday's major development revolved around a chat I had with Dr. Sanders while I was teaching her some tricks in Picasa. She remarked that it was a shame that the school had no computer lab teacher, and I suggested that Dana and I pitch in to fill that role (since that's what we're really here for anyway). Together we came up with two potential projects for the eighth graders (the grade about which she is the most concerned, since they are heading into high school): a research project which would provide a framework for learning internet research, word processing, Powerpoint, and other technology skills, and a yearbook club for a smaller group of students which would involve putting together a yearbook for the eighth graders and a Powerpoint to be shown at graduation. I am hugely excited about the latter project, and spent most what was otherwise a very slow day on Wednesday putting together lesson plans for the yearbook club. I also talked to Mr. Hinton (the eighth grade teacher) about picking out a group of students -- he should have names for me soonish. Today, I switched the locations of the accountant's old and new computers, fixed a weird problem that Ms. Davis-Berry (216) was having with her computer, and generally kept busy.
