Extra sessions

I just decided in the past week to finally begin offering a extra sessions of my world history course for juniors before school. On Monday mornings we will be doing a more fun oriented set of projects focused on getting anyone behind caught up and giving motivation and further, less academic more "just for fun" type activities for those who just want to do the work. Right now we are working on lyrics for re-worded songs made to cover the history we have gone through in class. On Wednesdays we will be doing high level enrichment-- we will be focusing on a variety of reviewed scholarly journal articles. currently there are about 20 students signed up for the monday reviews and 30 signed up for wednesdays... If everyone shows that will require setting up a different room for the classes or multiple sessions. I cant wait to get this started. At this point, we can squeeze in an extra 24 full hrs of instruction before the end of the year.
