Daizey 0 #1 November 10, 2006 So, I'm teaching 4th grade now and we received some reading tests about a week ago that we were supose to be administering. I never bothered to look at it until today when I was getting ready to pass it out. I glanced down at it and was like, hey, cool! Not sure what skydiving has to do with fourth grade reading strategies, but it brightened my day *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #3 November 10, 2006 When you do the class picture, wear a hat so we can spot you. It's funny. I see skydiving pics everywhere. People use it as an attention-getter. A few years ago, they tried to determine why boys did poorly in English Literature. Turned out that they thought it was boring. They took out a few romance stories and put in a few more medieval action stories, the kids paid attention. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zing 2 #7 November 15, 2006 That looks suspiciously like Skip Evans' DC-3 ... if it is, the picture has been reversed, although there were a number of DC-3s built with doors on the right side for the airlines.Zing Lurks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 2 #10 November 15, 2006 A step on any DC-3 is sacrilegious. God built them for speed stars with no-show exits. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
