Today is the first day of school for my students so I wanted to take a break from the regular format of my journal entries to welcome them back for another great year at Centennial Middle School! I made the video below over the summer, knowing I'd miss the beginning of school for the first time in my 18 years at CMS. I'm very pleased that Mr. A could fill in for me while I'm on this expedition. My students are very lucky to benefit from his experience and talents as a teacher.
In addition to the many posts yet to come I'd encourage folks to skim through past journals to see what's been going on so far on the cruise. I'd also suggest you check out the Ship Talk and What Is The Arctic videos.
I'll be back to my regularly-scheduled programming tomorrow.
Quyanaqpak (pronounced khoo'-yan-ahk-pahk, Iñupiat for Thank You Very Much!) & go Cyclones!!
