Final Geezer Blog Hack

What a pleasure to spend the last couple days with you all. Would have been there today, but was called to active duty to help secure our alpine perimeter... ; )

Each of you are amazing in so many different ways. It was my honor to explore the realms of life and writing with you for a dozen weeks. I learned many profound lessons and am richer because of our time together.   

So, thank you all for playing your part in this beautiful one-act play called life.

Please remember Ali's advice to Remember....

And remember....... Mr D's advice to:
  1. Live a deliberate life.
  2. Think for yourself.
As good advice as I've ever heard. I'm sure Ali would agree.

I hope to see you around as the years roll by.......

Geezer Blog Hack

Greetings from the Geezer.

There I was, minding my own business when I was ambushed by rowdy riff-raff on board an otherwise peaceful sailing of the M/V Columbia.

In spite of their obvious need for adult supervision, these Ferry Fairies were all working very hard on their homework.

Mostly.

See You Before You Know It!

The whole show is slowly coming to a close. 

As we approach the end of the year we have done so much, crossed so many borders, and tried so many different things.  Now it is time to take something that you are proud of, expand on it and create something you are truly proud of. 

For a final project we are going to create a movie.  You will be working with I-movie in the lab, or something on your own, and put music, sound, and pictures together with your writing to make something amazing. 

My hope is that on your final week of school we will be able to sit back and watch the wonderful things that you have created.  I am providing a lot of lab and class time to finish this, please let me know if you have any questions.

Hey Team,

In the last week we took a look at Satire.  We looked at Juneau Douglas High School and played around with the different policies here.  I asked you to exagerate characteristics of the high school and come up with one of your own.
