it is important for students to question what they're learning and not just ingest information and barf it up on a test. it is important for them to formulate an opinion about what they are learning. --a THS teacher at our staff meeting.

sicko.
dear balcony sprawling, creepy slat peeking scoundrel,
I’m on to you. The next time I catch you crouching in the shadows to catch a glimpse of me showering, be prepared. There will be consequences. I’m not really sure what they will be or how i will carry them out, but they will be severe.
Have a nice day,
jackie

dear italia
Dear Italy,
When dad used the phrase, “bands of marauding thieves” to describe his concern about my spending time with you this summer, I scoffed. Dad surely couldn’t be referring to the country I had dreamed of visiting. The blessed country where I could eat my weight in pasta, finish it off with gelato, whilst capturing the beautiful countryside, cityscapes and awesome historical monuments on my canon? Heavens no. Unfortunately, dad was right about you, dear italia. At this moment, that’s all im saying. Don’t worry, a vivid description of your dastardly deeds will follow, but hopefully not until the scales have been tipped in favor of team italia.
Sincerely,
jackie
