Another great day at RHS! The freshmen seem to be settling in to their new surroundings, and it looks like most of the upper classmens' scheduling issues have been resolved.

Today, our freshman class reflected on the guidelines and procedures we've covered in class so far, and we took some time to go over the great exit questions they left for me at the end of our last class. We also had a chance to practice note taking and group work procedures today, and they did a great job with both.

The seniors did a wonderful job with group work today, and we had an awesome discussion about the Anglo-Saxon belief in fate and immortality. We also took a survey to help us discover our own beliefs about who or what controls our lives, and I think we learned a lot from the experience. It really helped us relate the Anglo-Saxon values to our own culture, and I hope it gave everyone something to think about.

That's it for today. Hope you had a good one!
