Priming!

Today was an interesting class. We were updated on our series project by Ms.K and were informed that we would be priming the boards that we would be creating the series on. However, the primer that we used wasn't aloud to get on the hallway floors because it would be unable to be removed. Considering this and that it was really sunny out (which is weird because its like december) we decided that we would rather work out side for the class. This lead to some problems. Even though we were out side in natures great wilderness of Hopkinton High we were unable to get primer on the ground, so we still needed to lay down paper under our boards. As soon as we succesfully layed out the paper over the area in which we would be priming, the wind picked up and swept the paper from its place. After a few more attempts at lying down the paper we only gathered the same result. This lead to a unaminous class vote to move the project back to the safe indoors of the school. There we were able to lay the paper down succesfully with out chaseing after it. Then the boards arived and were layed out on the paper. However there was not much space so two of our groups moved to the tech room to complete their priming jobs. Dividing and conquering isn't always the best tactic (the British proved that in the revolutionary war) but today it worked well. Each group was able to complete their two coats of primer on their respective boards and clean up before the class was ended with time to spare. This apeared to me and hopefully the class as a fun yet productive class.
