Lab

I have Father Keffler for Earth Science, and I really like him. He is very upfront about what makes him happy and what doesn't make him happy. We had our first lab this morning at 8 a.m., which is way too early in my opinion, and it went well. We learned about the science processing skills. So we had to draw a bee from memory and then we got to take a plant and study it, write down our observations, and then someone in the class had to pick out our plant from what we wrote. Not rocket science, but it was fun. Then we got to work in groups and try to put together a puzzle in under 8 minutes. That was the record from the other classes this week. Father Keffler is 71 and doesn't look it at all! He cracked us up this morning when he told us why does roll call. The first reason is so that he knows who is there and who isn't, the second is so that he can learn our names, and the third is for those of us in the classroom who are interested in someone but have no clue what their name is. According to him we will have better luck getting a date if we know their name :-)

Very funny, I love teachers who have a sense of humor! Some can almost make me forget about all the homework--until class ends :-)
