Did you watch?

The inaguration that is?

I watched, with my class, who did not understand the significance of what was going on for the most part, even though we have been over it.

For about 1/2 of them they got it, they understood why it was a big day in history. They cared and they listened and had good comments to make about it both during and after.

For about 1/2 of them the time would have been better spent doing math, the whole no child left behind thing ya know?

I just wonder if there were other schools out there whose superintendent said that the classes HAD to watch with nothing else going on....



I will post my thoughts on the entire thing in a bit...
