Failure and Success

We continued our work around failure and success this week by watching the Nick News feature: My Big Fat Failure. Kids continued to take notes and think about how success and failure are related.

Thursday and Friday students went into the computer lab and learned how to sign onto their SLP Google Domain. This will allow them to work on Google Docs and share assignments with me electronically, as well as work on assignments both at school and at home. They can find the link to the SLP Google sight by looking under Staff Resources on the Middle School Home Page.

Students had their first assignment: 1 paragraph exploring the relationship between success and failure. These are due at the end of the class on Friday. Students who attended the French field trip to the MIA have until Monday to finish up.

Welcome!

Welcome back to a new school year!!!

We are beginning our year with a discussion of failure and how failure is essential to success. Please take a minute to look at the attached image, which we discussed and wrote about in class today!
