Wine Rack Pen Holders over the years


So seven years ago I found an old wine rack in my basement and it gave me an idea! I turned the wine rack into a pen holder by replacing bottles of wine with cups!


First Pen Holder

Say what? Inference Oops

So I got my first cold of the teaching season. It is too early in the year to call in sick because I am trying to keep my routines and authority in place. I have been barreling through with this cold all week.  We started learning about inference this week. For the most part it has been going well.  We read "Made out of Meat" and then made inferences about the story.  The story is a conversation between two beings and their discussion about these beings they have just encountered who are, "Made out of meat."  The reader needs to infer that the being having a conversation are aliens and the beings made out of "meat" are humans.
