A Beach Weekend

Birthday Party Madness

Cave Art!
This is how our cave art turned out.

They made caves to read in.

Then I made a "cave" out of our room.

Science Class
I gave a test about melting, freezing, and evaporation.  On this part they had to draw what would happen next.  This puddle is supposed to evaporate.  Daniel drew a mop :)

El Portal cafe in Antigua.

Beach Weekend!   
Ok, so the beach is not exactly my thing, but it was a fun weekend and nice to be warm!

The buildings all have palm roofs.  The beds have mosquito nets.

We went on a boat tour through the mangroves to watch the sunrise.  A beautiful morning!

I couldn't pick just one!

Happy Valentine's!

Some of you know that I was sick a few weeks ago and had to visit the hospital.  They kept me overnight for antibiotics- my first hospital stay ever!

This is the hospital.  It is a private hospital; the public one doesn't always have medicine or beds.

View from my room.

Rosa de jamaica, soup, chicken, rice, guisquil (the green vegetable), tortillas, and cantalope.

Cave Art

The first day they had to paint with sticks and things they found outside.

They were supposed to be drawing animals... I have no explanation...

Reading Time!

Deciding which book to read first.

Working on Words

Sushi Night  
Right now in my house are a lot of Japanese students, some from Taiwan, and 1 from Korea.  They know where to go for good sushi!  I don't care for it much myself, but they let me sample their dishes and I got chicken :)  

Titanic sushi

Banana roll-  sushi with a Guatemalan touch.

Some more from school...

Practicing our Kindness verse.  Some of them need it more than others.

Valentine's Day with a photo booth!

1B boys (including some of my students from last year)

How well my kids know me :)
