I made a bunch of videos for this blog to keep parents up to date on
what I was teaching and I’m proud of them. I’m also really proud of all
the students that put time and energy and work into this blog. This is
an archive of a lot of the projects that they did in my class during
the 2005-2006 schoolyear.
