Hola Bart!
How are you doing right now? We are doing great! We loved your last blog with all the cool links! Did you have fun zip-lining? Was that you in the picture with the manta ray? Did you see any other interesting things while you were underwater? We did some traveling of our own today! We went to the Gobi and Sahara desert today during our science class. We went traveling via Smart Board Airways with our crazy teacher as the pilot! We learned about some animals while we were in the desert. We liked the horned toad lizard the best! The horned toad lizard shoots blood from its eyes to protect itself from predators. The movie was really cool! Here's a movie of the blood shooting out from the lizard's eyes: Horned Toad Movie.
We also worked on our Mother's Day projects today. We are making our mothers bookmarks, books and cards. Some of us in Mrs. J's class were able to go to the cafeteria and decorate a cake for our mothers.
Today is day U and we ate fruit roll-Ups for snack. We also wore United States colors, we were understanding and unselfish with others. We went to Music for our special today and sang a song about crickets. We even sang the song for our teacher. She loved it!!!
Tomorrow is day T and we are going to eat Townhouse crackers, wear a T-shirt, count by 2's and 10's and 25's. We are also going to have a spelling bee tomorrow where all the words are going to be T words... the Spelling T! The words will be terrific for sure!
Well, Bart, thank you so much for the beautiful pictures and links. We have a few more questions about your time underwater. How big was the manta ray? What type of shark did you see? What did you do when you saw the shark? We would love to hear all about your adventures underwater. Mrs. J always tells us to write details, details and more details!! We also love details!! We even have a song about details that we'll teach you when we get to day D!
Have a great day and we can't wait to hear from you again tomorrow!
Sincerely,
Mrs. J's ultimate, upward, uppity and upside-down friends

I think I'm enjoying this trip around the world as much as all of you! :) Katherine's mom
