State FBLA Conference

We just finished the 2011 State FBLA Conference in Charleston.  Our students enjoyed themselves and we had two 1st place winners, two 2nd place winners, two 3rd place winners and six other events with places in the top five. 

One of the highlights of the conference was the guest speaker, Eddie Slowikowski.  This is the second time that I have had the pleasure of seeing him speak.  See the video taken at the conference.

Rowan's Journey Into Physics

The ?RIDDL3R$? team is making progress.  Check out their team page!  Each team member is doing their part and the game is starting to come together.  There is still plenty to do, but I am sure the end result is going to be great!

I will be out of class on Monday and Tuesday next week for the State FBLA Conference.  About half of my class is involved and will be attending also.  Then we will have to work hard to catch up the rest of the week!

Making Progress

Sometimes it seems as if we aren't making any headway but I've been checking out each teams' progress and I am seeing nice examples of artwork and programming.  Some of my groups are correcting their own programming errors and moving right along.  I am really getting excited to see the final product. 

I would like to welcome our principal to Globaloria.  She is attending a workshop this week and my students are looking forward to seeing what she does with her wiki page.  I know that some of the students have already added her as a friend.

Before you know it, it will be May and time for presentations.  We still have a lot of work to do!
