When teaching in Ohio, it is essential to support Ohio State football. Therefore, I was shocked when I read one of my student's papers about how the Gators would win in the bowl game. He was sooooo sure about it. Obviously, I had to give him a hard time, and I said there was no way the Gators would beat the Buckeyes. The student didn't look convinced, so I went on to say..."I'm so sure that OSU will win that I will throw a party during English if Gators win. In fact, I'll bake a cake!" And so...the kids had a great time at the party.
Brutus got a brand new lime green polo shirt for Christmas from his grandparents. He loves it...mostly because he gets a treat whenever he lets us put it on. 
In this classic picture, Daniel is showing off his air guitar skills in his new shirt. He claims he can play any air instrument...just ask!
