Beginning of the End


San Francisco church and Volcan de Agua
And the good-byes have already started :(



"What is this suitcase on your floor?"

There's a Guatemalan-style of painting that is called "vista de pajaro" or "bird's eye view".  A cafe had these as placemats and I got some for my students to color.  I usually don't do art projects that are just coloring, but this fit perfectly with our unit on Perspective and they are Guatemalan...
The kids loved them!  This is how they turned out.



Sunset
Olivia at the end of the wall getting a picture.  I climbed up a much smaller wall and ended up with a scraped up hand.
Worth it though!
La Casaca-  I will miss getting a Saturday morning coffee here!

Cards we made to go with our song. Thank you to Ms. Kim for lending us her alphabet stamps and to Ms. Bailey for finding ink!

Trip into the city and Walmart!  The bathrooms are on the second floor, creating a rare mirador of the store.
