The first project pages are up. This will get quicker with each project I put on the site, so stick with me.

ASNE 2009 Projects

Let me know if you find problems.

Squirrel group, if you would like to remake your jpg with the quotes into something more horizontal, I can place it below the sound slides…I could not get it beside the slide show because if the width and it looked funny below in the vertical jpg.

Good work Black Squirrel Posse!

Story Ideas are up!

The story ideas tab on the ASNE site is all set. If you find broken links let me know where so I can fix…or any other problems for that matter.
Lessons, Gallery and Projects to follow soonish…

The little cake that couldn’t

Tomorrow, there will be no cake. Some of you heard me talking about making fondant and making a cake for Friday’s luncheon, but alas, I have to report…it’s too hot for cake.

The thing about fondant (fondant is that stuff that is made of 100% sugar, usually tastes awful but makes cakes all smooth and pretty) is that it reacts to its environment and the environment of my kitchen today was apparently too hot to handle. I am including a picture of the cake as it slowly melted and sagged its way into an orange ball of sugar, icing and crisco (fondant requires you to crisco your house, your kids, most of your body and anything else the fondant might touch..it’s REALLY sticky stuff).

It was almost amazing.

SO, with that, I will say it was nice to meet you all these two weeks and please feel free to contribute to this blog throughout your school year. Tell us what has worked and what has not. And make sure you leave the black squirrels here!!! (They’re cute but they make terrible pets…not that I would know).

I will be working dilligently at getting your projects online over the next week…all the while eating melted cake it seems!

The Force was with me

Chewbacca has been found!

Just so everyone can rest at ease (I know you were all very worried) Chewbacca has been found. Candace was luring him to the Dark Side (of her desk). All is now well with the universe.

The bugs

Hello all! I am working on getting everyone added so they can contribute to the blog. If you have questions email KentStateCSJ@gmail.com. That address is for questions regarding the blog only.

If you get your invitation to WordPress and it guides you to create your own blog and you do not really want to do that, just let me know and I will see about getting you on board in another fashion.

Thanks for your patience and if you are all set up as a few of you are, please feel free to contribute your thoughts in the days leading up to your arrival at Kent State University!

Thanks again -

Stacy
