The idea is to get students working immediately. They walk into the classroom and find work projected on the Promethean board and are to get started.

From today.

GATHER ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying:
And this same flower that smiles to-day
To-morrow will be dying.The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,
The higher he ‘s a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he ‘s to setting.That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,And while ye may, go marry:
For having lost but once your prime,
You may for ever tarry.

Robert Herrick. 1591—1674

AND AFTER YOU’RE DONE GATHERINGYE ROSEBUDS, GATHER YE STARTERS WHILE YE MAY. OLD MR. SCOTT’S A-CHECKING THEM TODAY
