I am excited about this school year! The kids are terrific, studying hurricanes was great, and we are moving on to the Scientific Thinking and Logic Week unit. This is a terrific unit, as it helps kids learn how their brain works and develops their deductive reasoning skills. We concentrate on the Scientific Method and learning how to think like a scientist and lab procedures.
This is the first time I have ever had a blog attached to my web site. As a student or parent, please feel free to post anything here that you want me, students and parents to see regarding what we are studying in school. I am not quite sure how we will use the blog, but I think I will try having kids post on here as hw one time and we can do some brainstorming as to other ways we will use the blog.

My name is Joan Jorgensen Edgar. I am from California and lived there until I graduated from UC Berkeley; I then moved to Seattle, WA--loved living in that green place--lots of hiking and cycling! I moved to Mass. and love it here--tennis, hiking, kayaking and teaching are four of my passions; my three sons Colin, Duncan and Malcolm are the joys of my life. I live in Duxbury, enjoy life in that beautiful town, and am involved in 4th of July and town music committees. I helped to build a Habitat for Humanity house in my town. I love to travel and go to National Parks. My favorite place I've travelled to is Iceland--what beauty! Don't be surprised if you see and hear me singing and dancing--I think life should be lived like a movie musical! Archives
