Wow! What a day! The first day of the last term!

We started out with a journal entry about procrastination – the different ways we procrastinate and how we can fix them. We have a lot of  “dreamers” here at Vistas!

We then moved along and filled out an application for the Fiesty Haggis. Chase caught a Riley typo in the LMS title of the survey, But Riley fixed it. We all laughed at Riley pantomiming her impression of a powder monkey, but she didn’t know what all of the pirate positions were! What kind of captain is that?

Edmodo was next on the agenda. Returning students logged in and new students created accounts, and all students made sure that they got alerts and direct messages sent to their cell phones.

Then came the highlight of the day: Creative Coloring. Riley gave each person a different colored marker (some people chose by color, and others chose by scent) and were told to draw a picture. But we couldn’t trade colors or have someone else use our color marker (some did both).

1st block drew a fruit bowl:

 

Second Block, uh, they drew a “Lemonade Stand.” Kind of.

And 3rd Block were the kiss ups. They drew a pirate ship:

To finish that activity off, we went to Riley’s Blog (this one right here) and answered five questions on Creative Coloring.

The last thing that we were supposed to do that was the Carpe Diem Translation Tower, but we didn’t get to it. Some did, some didn’t. So there should be some time tomorrow to get that done.

Yo, ho, ho!
