Whether or not we have school tomorrow, you still need to post about today's class. Important points you might want to include: hunters/gatherers, plant domestication, sago, taro roots and bananas, granary, Draa' (the world's first village), wheat and barley, etc.

Reminder
On the first day of classes you all received work to do. Your assignment was to create a blog, email me the address, and post your first entry. Some of you have done this; many of you have not.
If you want to avoid starting the semester with a zero, do this assignment. If you need to be reminded of the details, check my posting for last Sunday and Tuesday.
Just because we had a few snow days does not mean we aren't still in school!

Snow day! Giddyup!
I hope you are all enjoying the snow! It's great packing - perfect for snowball fights and snowmen. Not bad for sledding and boarding. Not so good for shoveling...
Hey, you've all got blogs. Post a great pic of you doing something fantastic in the snow - boarding, sledding, making snow angels, whatever - and I'll share it with everyone on my blog. I'll start it off with the snow horse that the Schicks made this morning. (Well, it was mainly my wife, but we all pitched in...)
Your turn!
