First Day of School

It was a great first day of school at CMS.  Students seem very excited at the opportunity to use laptops throughout the year in social studies class.  In the following weeks I will schedule a parent information night to talk about the implementation of laptops in class.

Today we focused on why we learn history and talked about becoming motivated and passionate to leave a legacy.  I stressed to students that I want them not to be motivate by grades or points, but to find inspiration in sharing what they learn with the world.  Hopefully by the end of this week we will skype with Beachwood Middle and meet Mr. Holman and his students.  Mr. Holman and I are working out a schedule so our students can collaborate throughout the year. 

Great Job today students and staff of CMS!!
