Georgics!!!

I love all of Pyramid Project, but I have to admit that the second semester, studying Georgics, is certainly my favorite!

Sorry, I didn't get this out earlier.  I started it about 3 times and never finished.  I'll make sure to email it, too.

Did you finish Old Yeller?  Did you cry?  Come on, you can admit it... you got at least a little misty-eyed, right?  Or was that just me?  I'm excited for our book discussion tomorrow with all SIX of you having read it!!

How is it coming with getting your hands on all the books?  Please make this a priority!

Are you thinking about what your garden project is going to look like?  Did you see the link I posted on FB for some ideas for container gardens?  http://m.hometalk.com/3400506/5-best-container-vegetables-for-beginning-gardeners  Or how about this one, using flowers instead of insecticides? http://ofrf.org/news/flowers-replace-insecticides-lettuce-production  Here's another idea I found this week, that I'm really interested in trying, so I can maybe get an early start on the growing season: http://www.farmshow.com/view_articles.php?a_id=1486  If you find any great links or ideas, make sure you share them... in class and/or on FB and email.  I love learning new things.  I'm sure we'll all learn a bunch about gardens from Sister Ottosen this week!

And a last reminder... this semester is a step up in work... math at least 4 times a week, daily Core studies, at least 10 minutes in logbook every day, papers, presentations, lots of books, and a garden project.  Please bring your forms, signed by a parent, showing your commitment to these things.
