Slacker

Oh my have I been slacking! The three of you out there that read this are probably wondering where the heck I have been. Well, I'm back.

Since my last post we have completed a whole unit on economics. We talked about scarcity and decision making, supply and demand and three different kinds of economies (command, market and traditional). The highlight of the unit was when the students had to pretend they were stranded on an island. They were forced to make decisions about how problems would be solved and what type of economy they had.

We had a partner test on Friday 4-23 to wrap up the economic unit.

This week we have started Psychology, one of my favorite units! There is an assignment coming up where the students will have to create a personality profile. These will be due Monday for 5th and 6th hour, Tuesday for 2nd and 3rd hour.
