Wa He Lut World
Last class day before we run the races* and end the school year, which will happen Monday morning. I rang Mothra last night and while we talked I ran the pathways, as I needed to know if the answers were on the correct signs. After lagging behind in the implementation of their question sign boards, Warcraft got busy last week (Isaiah, really) and have 9 good crustacean questions and one unmade question station. Alliance has 9 decent questions, although I needed to change the wording on one, and a duplicate/lame-o question that needs replacing. On the whole theirs are not quite as good as Warcraft's, and have several cuttlefish questions, indicating that someone found a cuttlefish Q&A on the 'net. Last week I told the children to find pictures to illustrate the animals in the questions, and they did, which is groovy. Today we clean up the paths/questions/spelling and I hope to take a few pictures.

When we are finished Rich will freeze the world as CTCUni is updating to a newer AW version. I know not what will happen next year. We had no funding this year, but for us, really, it made not a great deal of difference ( we didn't have our Cornell student mentors, so it meant more was expected of me).

*There are two paths which run up the sides of a mountain. The class is divided into two teams, with each given a topic and the task of creating 10 question stations along their path. One team has molluscs as its topic; one team has crustaceans as its topic. The races will be run with students essaying the questions along the other team's path. If the correct sign is clicked the student warps to the next question. If the wrong choice is made the student warps away and has to make his way back (although I've discovered that if you hit the + it stops the warp - but shhhhhhhhhh).
