Another Meeting

Click this Grendel

Today our PLC had another meeting. Our members discussed ways that we could coordinate both our testing and our Senior Exit Projects.

And here I include a sample from our Final Test:

Senior Final 2008

From Beowulf :

Then, when Darkness had dropped, Grendel
Went up to Herot, wondering what the warriors
Would do in that hall when their drinking was done
He found them sprawled in sleep, suspecting
Nothing, their dreams undisturbed. The monster’s
Thoughts were as quick as his greed or his claws:
He slipped through the door and there in the silence
Snatched up thirty men, smashed them
Unknowing in their beds and ran out with their bodies,
The blood dripping behind him, back
To his lair, delighted with his night’s slaughter.
