Wild, Wacky and Wonderful Friends say Hola!!

Hola Bart!!
Thank you so so so much for the beautiful blanket from Chile! We love it!! The colors and patterns are so pretty and it is very bright and bold. What else did you see in Chile? In North America, more specifically, the USA, we live in Gainesville, Florida and when we go to the supermarket, it is called Publix. At Publix, we can buy fruits, vegetables, meat, cereal, cheese, popcorn, juice, toys for dogs, but we have no blankets or quilts at Publix!!!!! We sure wish we could buy a quilt at Publix, but the one from your mercado is much prettier!!!

Today is day W or doble W day. We have been learning lots of Spanish in our classroom. We go to a great Spanish site and here is the link for our Spanish Lessons. Our teacher, Mrs. J, loves to sing with her pointer stick during our alphabet song!! We have learned the days of the week, months of the year, numbers up to twenty, and the alphebet in Spanish. We have also been singing another song called, "Buenos Dias" during our morning meeting. We have also learned some Spanish words for fruit and colors. We are also learning about weather and different week phrases. We love to use our Spanish whenever we can!!

We did some wacky things today. We ate watermelon, waddled at recess, watched a Walt Disney movie called, "Finding Nemo" and wore white with our watches! We wrote in our family journals which is a journal that we use to communicate back and forth to our moms and dads about the different things we do each day in the classroom. We also did a neat activity with reef animals that was wacky and wild!

We think we know where you are going tomorrow. Are you going to Venezuela? We are going to be learning more about Herman our worm tomorrow and reading Viola Swamp books. We are also going to watch a video about Viola Swamp. We are also going to wear violet and eat vegetables tomorrow! Make sure that you eat some vegetables tomorrow for day V!!

Thanks again for the wonderful, wild, wonderous, and WOW beautiful blanket!
Have a great rest of the day and hope to talk to you again tomorrow!!
Manana, Bart!
