Extra Credit


Lex has become obsessed with earning an A in her science class. She is always trying to come up with some way to get a few extra points. Her teacher informed the students that anyone can have an “A” because he will always accept extra credit. I think Alexis had a B+ at mid-terms because she forgot to do the back of an assignment, etc.

Well here is a picture of her best idea yet. She made an animal cell out of jello. Red Jello frosted with whipped cream. She used shredded cheese, raw noodles, a whopper. If I were more smart I could tell you what each of those represented in her model.

I forgot to ask her if her teacher ate it?

Hey, Lex, great to see and hear that you are working hard in your Science class. Have you every thought about creating a PowerPoint presentation and using some of the fancy features. What is the next project? Do you need some ideas (from an OLD science teacher)?

As an old teacher , I would give her extra credit for just her smile and cheerful nature, but that is a cool cell.

If I was the teacher, I’d rather look at Jello and such instead of PowerPoint slides – but then again, I stare at a computer all day so I may be biased.

Lex and Bridget must come from the same mold. Maybe that’s why they get along so well… 🙂
