Today in the classroom:

First year chem is taking their test on chemical reactions with some stoichiometry thrown in for good measure.

Web dev are working with simple box model manipulations. This is proving to be the first real challenging task for many in the class.

AP Chem are reviewing for their test on stoichiometry and reactions tomorrow.

Anyone have tips on how much water to use with gouache? I was happy with my first painting yesterday, but I can't find much on water-paint ratio in this medium.

I tried gouache for the first time tonight. This is a scene from our trip to Zion.

About once each year, my wife and I really want to watch a football game. We don't have an UHF antenna for over-the-air broadcasts, so I'm going to do a 10 day free trial of YouTube TV to make it happen tonight.

Peak insanity is going to Costco on a Saturday morning for just two things.

Today in the classroom:

First year chem is reviewing for their reactions test on Monday.

Web dev is doing some box model exercises. I need to come up with some ways to get them to put more skills into practice. I think these assignments are a little too small.

AP Chem is finishing titration analysis and prepping for a test next week.

We have a huge weather shift happening today, so I'm blaming that.

Went to bed early last night with a headache. Woke up early this morning with the same headache.

Today should be fun.

Also me looking at my lab this afternoon.

My brain is tired.

I forgot to brush my teeth this morning and everything is terrible.

I need to keep spare stuff in my classroom for this exact situation.

Today in the classroom:

First year chem are finishing their chemical reactions unit with a mini lab and some individual review. They'll test early next week.

Web dev are working on CSS selectors and when to use which type. I need to do better here to push them along through the slog. Lots of sloppy work right now.

AP Chem are struggling with intrinsic motivation. We're balancing redox, hopefully a lab tomorrow.
