tcsnmy6

Some kind words from up north

Designer and educator Frank Chimero wrote some nice things about the tcsnmy6 blog last night:

This was found on Rob Greco’s blog for his 6th grade class. I love the fact that I can find things on a blog for 6th graders and share it with all of you and feel that it’s relevant. In sixth grade I was picking my nose, pulling hair, and throwing rocks and not thinking about how standard economic concepts about incentives break sometimes.

PS: Are you reading Greco’s delicious stream? It’s literally a one-stop-shop for everything interesting happening on the web day to day. It’s almost a blog. Pats on the back, Mr. Greco, and see you in 5th period.

Thanks for the kind words, Frank. For the record, and more than you probably want to know: (a) We’re on a block schedule and students mostly stay in their “studio” while faculty members migrate to them, so we don’t really discuss periods and there are no bells sounding off. (b) No one, not even students, calls me Mr. Greco around here. We’re all on a first name basis.
