Mr. Gierhart's Blog

These are my #BigTimeGoals for this year in 3rd grade: I want to find ways to improve our wikis. I will try to ask my students about their day more often. I will give feedback as quickly as possible, so my students know how they are doing. I will try to have lunch with my badge earners by the end of this week. I will make more fun math projects for my class to do this year. I will send out notes at the beginning of November so that we can do our annual gingerbread house project. Side note: The students have to write stories about them afterwards. #LiteracyGoals I will help my students write and blog in other ways that just paragraphs. #NumberedLists #PhotoEssays #Hypertext I will try to tidy up our classroom (with my students' help) more often.

In my opinion, bats are gross and disgusting creatures. First off, they have pointy little bony fingers in their wings. In fact, they even have little toenails and fingernails on these fingers that are curvy and remind me of a witch. Next, bats eat really weird foods such as insects and blood. Basically, that doesn't sound like an animal I want to hang out with at all. Finally, bats have weird flappy wings and hairy bodies. When it comes down to it, I'm only into cuddly animals, so bats just don't interest me. I feel that bats are really icky and I prefer that they stay out of my house!
