Souper Bowl

Tomorrow at Donovan the teachers all bring in soup and we have a Souper Bowl party.  Get it a "Souper Bowl" party.  I will not lie...I love this day.  Any excuse to get to sit and eat a bunch of different soups with breads sounds great to me.  Of course on the day we have hot soup served it is going to be the hottest it has been in the last thirty days.  I just finished my chili and it seems like it might be a good batch.

Tonight I have been working on finding a few infographics that we are going to use to look at the real Super Bowl and the separation of powers in our government.  I love looking at infographs.  I just found infographs a few years ago but I love how they show information in a visual way.  Here is an example of an infograph about vinyl records.

Sorry I realize that might now show up perfectly on the blog.  I think these infographs are just another type of text that students have to learn to read.  It also allows us to look at different types of charts and graphs.  I find the information inside of the infographs amazing.  For example one of the infographs that we are going to look at tomorrow claims that enough guacamole is going to be consumed on Sunday to cover a football field at a depth of 11.8 feet.  That is insane, but to be honest I know how much guacamole I will be eating so it might not be that implausible.  

I need to keep it short tonight.  I hope you are all having a great week.
