So we started out today talking about GRADES! Namely, that in order to get “A” on an assignment, I need to see some independent thought in your assignment or some kind of risk. I compare grades to coffee.

Then, the lesson today started out with a choice – which would you rather: knowing WHEN we would die or knowing HOW we’d die – without any ability to change future events.

Then, we answered the Deep Questions. I”ll be looking at your DEEP thoughts about this rather than complete sentences, so focus on that. This should take some time to complete, so if you get done in three minutes, you probably didn’t do it correctly.

Then, we watched the trailer for The Bucket List and I cried.

Today, we will be writing our OWN bucket lists, and I mentioned the most common item on my students’ lists is skydiving. So then I impressed everyone with this video – make sure you check out the super cool helmet (?) that I’m wearing and how goofy I look when I am actually jumping out of the plane.

We opened an account for BucketList and started adding events today. We are finishing tomorrow.
