A student, who is in my HSP (Home School Program) class and an Exceptional learner -- as defined by the TDSB -- asked me if something I was teaching in class was going to be on the blog. This is where one of the major forces behind doing the blog came from: the students.
Is it nice that a parent or the public take a look at it? Sure. But the real intention was to provide the students with a review of the day and some additional examples to support their learning.

In terms of studying the movement of people in particular places, I came across a great entry on the blogto.com website on Lake Iroquois and its shoreline and how this relates to Davenport Road.
Had this student not asked that question, I am not sure when I would have returned to this exercise.
That bothers me.
I now must wrestle with those thoughts. In the meantime, I hope the posts, even if they are a touch shorter, will help the various learners who I am fortunate enough to work with. I will maintain a level of brevity in my posts, but I will not end them.
