Celebrating Earth Day
Posted on April 1, 2008
I'm gearing up to do 3 road trips during the next 8 weeks and will be driving through Texas, Florida and California, stopping to visit parent/teacher stores. If you'd like to meet for coffee, as I make my way through your state, please send me an email and we'll see what we can arrange. It's always nice to take a break on these long trips and I enjoy meeting the people I've written to for so long.
Easter weekend is always fun around here. My house backs onto an enormous park where little kids run. searching for Easter eggs. Fluffy, my dog, and I went out to watch. Fluffy may have been coveting those chocolate eggs because when we got home she took her first opportunity to attack a box of chocolates and eat as much as she could. Luckily, she wasn't sick.
This Week's Theme - Celebrating Earth Day
On April 22nd, people around the world will be celebrating Earth Day. We hope that you enjoy these two bilingual songs (English-Spanish and English-French). These songs teach about recycling and the use of common "question words".
