                                  Happy Birthday, Joshua!

Scouting Around

 After months of deliberation, delay, deliquency, and debate...Joshua finally finished his Eagle Project.  Upon completion of the "ordeal," I asked Joshua some questions about the experience.  Here's a small bit of the conversation:Q:  What was your project?A:  Making "phonic phones."Q:  Why would you do that?A:  Because my mom told me to.Q:  I see...And whom, exactly, are the phones supposed to help?A:  Me, to get my license (M told J that he couldn't drive until he had his Eagle...hence the frequent debates about the fairness and necessity of the whole thing).Q:  Ah, well, according to your Plan, who will benefit from your phonic phones?A:  (in a very official sounding voice) 'These devices will be of benefit to students during reading/speaking instruction time and an aid to teachers, as well, in their classroom management."  Ta da!
(This picture collage is an attempt to "scrapbook" with a new app called "Project Life."  I really like the app, but haven't figured out, yet, how to transfer my "creations" here.  I'll have to try again (and again, and again, and again...).
