We've Been Quiet...

The blog has been quiet lately, other than weekly schedules. Does that mean we haven't been doing much? Oh no!

First, there was this, some multiple choice practice...


While the other group did this (a poetry circle)...


And, sadly and frightfully, there was this...



Then someone did this magnificent character web of King Lear (it was me)...


Collaborative lesson with Mrs. Tindal on King Lear and Filial Responsibility...


So yes, we have been busy. Just not much that was photo-worthy. :)
