Mr S Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Okay so I am having a rock making party on Sunday. You should have all got evites. I plan on showing you how my students and I make LR and plugs. I realize there are many ingrediants and ways to make them so I will go over a few. My main plan is to make it a hands on day. I don't want to teach on my day offDOH! I do need to know how many people are coming and if they want to build or just watch. If you are building the following materials would be good to bring: rubber gloves container to take your rock home in (it will take a few days to dry out) any paper cups or something if you want to make plugs a large container of sand or crushed coral if you want to get jiggy! pm me if you have any questions (no personal ones, I get creeped out pretty easily) or respond to this post if there are general questions. IT goes without saying that every workshop I have had at my class involves food so respond on this post about what food you are bringing(rock2) heh heh heh I will bring pop.

Piero Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 This is like Christmas for my opioid receptors. Sounds like a brilliant tool for having fun and learning simultaneously, and the whole activity reinforces the priority of sustainability for a future generation. bravo!(clap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 PARTY!!!! Wish i could come. I'll be making my own rock at home this weekend though. You gonna have someone taking pics Roger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piero Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm beggin' for an excuse to play reporter. I'd like to come and take pics and do a writeup, if that's ok. Maybe a local paper would be interested as well? Sounds like a nice feel-good story for the sunday metro section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanF Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 So what were we thinking for food. I could stop on the way up and pick up some pizzas but I just need to know what people like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
180Brandy Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 the works! olives,bell pepper,mushrooms, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanF Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 The next question is does anyone know of a pizza place up in albany. I am sure we all prefer that I don't have to get the pizzas down here and then drive 40 mins before they get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
180Brandy Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I think there is a pizza hut by the mall. Not a 100% sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr S Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Geez Sean that sounds awesome. I know I like blue colored zoos on my pizza!!!! LOL There is a pizza hut by the mall. Do you know how to get there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanF Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 If you can get me there number I will probably just have it delivered to the school that way I don't get lost. How many people are going to be there? I am a little low on my zoos right now. I will have to mapquest my way to the school again. Besides the school the farthest I have made it into albany is the fast food places by the freeway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr S Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 I have no idea how many people will be there. As typical, not a lot of evite responses but I know of alot of people who will be there. Let's play it by ear. Glad you are coming!!!

Palani Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 So how'd it go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanF Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 It went well I thought other than the pizza situation. I ordered the pizza at 12:15 and when left sometime after 2 there was still no pizza. Sorry everyone for the food situation I just had no idea that it would take hours to get a couple of pizzas.
