Hello former classmates!

If you are reading this, I am testing this site out to see if I can get my kids to use it to publish book reviews. We'll see if it works!

KWL...?

So, how does one go about utilizing a KWL strategy when the kids don't no that no starts with a K? It would seem that the strategy would be a bit more complicated than it is meant to be in this situation.

I need your support....

Hello Dr. Glassett & class,

I have to ask a little favor of you all.

As Dr. Post has maybe told you, I was just released from Memorial Hospital with double-sided pneumonia. I got three problems: 1. My immune system is down to zero, so if anybody in the class has a cold or some other kind of infection, please please sit very far away from me, because my system could not deal with it.

2. I only weigh 43 kilos now and have to drink stupid meal replacement shakes and that kind of stuff in class, so I won't collapse. I know it's very impolite to eat in class, but I hope I can get a special permission.

3. I'm still an outpatient and need to do blood tests and the like. In case I have to miss a class, I hope there will be somebody who collects the handouts for me and lets me copy his or her notes (although I hope I will make it to every class...).

That's it! You don't need to be afraid, I'm not contagious.
I'm looking forward to the class.

Thank you all,

Christina Voss
