Friday. Middle school leadership. They were creating "mission statements".
(The success classes a couple weeks ago were doing a similar assignment.)
I was to remind the eighth graders that this was their final and it was due that day. Their grades were due by 4:30 PM. I mean, some of them could probably afford a zero, but their grade would take at least a letter grade hit, I assume.
(The seventh graders still had a week, but I don't think their teacher really wanted to grade the assignment twice.)
And the kiddos? Pretty much worked on the assignment. This was a leadership class, after all. Student government. There are GPA requirements, besides the fact that a kiddo has to be pretty motivated to choose to run for an office and serve the year doing all the various activities that go along with that.
Today is the actual last day of school. Whew. Made it another year.
Congrats on making another year! I hope today is easy.
ReplyDelete7th graders with nothing to do? This might go badly, but so far, about half the kiddos didn't show up.
DeleteCongrats on another year! I am still impressed that you do this.
ReplyDeleteTruthfully, I'm not qualified to do anything else.
DeleteHurrah, part 2! 🎉
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on surviving another year and ending the day before last with an easy class. Our school year where I live ends Friday, June 26 (it doesn't start up again until the week of Labor Day).
ReplyDeleteWe used to be on that schedule. I'm not sure if I miss it or not. Pros and cons.
DeleteHappy last day of school.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteCongrats on another successful year
ReplyDeleteGrats surviving another year! My kids have already been out for two weeks. Now, they spend all day on their computers at home. At least my son is in martial arts and is participating in a pushup challenge, so he's getting exercise. And my daughter's taken on art projects involving clay, 3d printing, and resin. But yeah, trying to get them to do more is difficult. (I do force them to cook dinner with me.)
ReplyDeletethecontemplativecat here. WoooHooo! You made it!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations
ReplyDeleteI heard a sigh of relief. :)
