Today was the first day of school 2012. Senior parade before school went off without any accidents! We were in homeroom (lots of forms and lockers) for first block the all the morning classes were shortened before lunch. Third block was extended and fourth block was shortened ... we let out early to aid in the primary school's effort to get everyone on the correct bus.
I am teaching Genetics, Selected Topics in Science (mostly juniors) and Computer Programming this fall. AP Biology (2 classes) in the Spring with another Selected Topics Class. We did a lot of house cleaning today and will start up with a lab tomorrow.
Below is my new home room, sophomores. Appears to be a great group!
My buckwheat fields are blooming. I planted them about a month ago and each morning the honeybees cover the fields. Buckwheat (a broadleaf/dicot, not a grass) is a great cover crop ... smothers the weeds and helps build the soil. It grows well without fertilizer and in acidic soils. Our bees will be using it to put in honey for the winter!
