A student downstairs in Ms. Wooten's third grade ask if she thought the world was going to end in 2012.
Her answer to that was that she didn't know when the world was going to end. She said, it could be tomorrow, it could end in 2012, or it could end a million years from now. I believe that there is only One being that knows the answer to that, and that is the big man upstairs.
The student, without missing a beat, promptly replied, OK, so I'll go ask Mr. McGuire.
If he only knew . . .

Going back to the ability grouping. I think people should be in groups and in their group there is their own way of scoring.I think the extra credit is a good idea but only certain kids who need it should be able to have it.
Like for in the group that have a struggle in reading class could have it as extra credit. Just a enough to raise their grade a little.If we raised their grade a lot they would think oh since I have a good grade I don't have to do my work.
For people who good in reading I think they should not get to have the extra credit.If we let them have it then they would always have a A+. I think we should not give it to them because then they will think now I can slop something down then they will never do their work.They will participate and get the extra credit.
LOVE this...I hope the "Man Upstairs" (aka Mr. McGuire) knew the answer! ha ha
I would like to know the answer too Mr. McGuire, even though I'm sure you are not the one I would go to. . . .
Oh Hannah, so little faith. In fact, I do know the answer. It's either the day before the worst day of your life, or else the day before the best day of your life. Have a nice day.
P.S. It's not today! :)
