School, Soccer, and Spanish

9-19-12

Hola-

Today Lali and I did our power point presentation for English.

Tyler gave us some advice after we bombed it: Never tell the class that the subject of your presentation is going to be boring.

Maybe I should have thought of that before I said “After reading The Witch of Blackbird Pond, I thought that Puritans and Quakers were boring. After researching Puritans and Quakers, I decided they were very boring except for the ‘witch’ burnings they did.”

Don’t be surprised if I blog and say I earned a F-. Because it stunk.

Keri’s Science class rocks, and  Art/Music and Math are awesome.(Math is only awesome because my Dad teaches it.)

I have been playing a lot of soccer with the kids at school during recess. Two teams: The 5th – 7th girls, and the 5th – 7th boys. So far we have had about 7 games. I think we tied twice, the boys won twice, and “The Champions” (girl’s team) won three times. 

I am missing home but I am getting used to living here more and more. Spanish is getting easier for us. But that’s still pretty hard.

Blessings,
