Elizabeth's School
Yesterday I visited Elizabeth's school. She is in a private school in the country club area. The secondary students were practicing for an upcoming handball game with another school, so I talked to some of the students that weren't participating at the moment. They looked at the scrapbook and asked me some questions. Then, I visited a 1st grade class--they all wanted to show me their notebooks. I "oooo"ed and "ahhhh"ed over them...it made them very happy. :) Next I went to a 5th grade class (shown below). I spoke to them quite a bit about the differences in schools in Paraguay and the U.S. The students asked a lot of questions. After classes were over, Elizabeth, her brother, and some friends took me to eat at a churriscaria (Brazilian-style restaurant). It was good, but I was STUFFED!

I'm glad you 'oooo'ed and 'aaahh'ed for the little ones. And what's handball? (I know I'm not the most athletic person in the world, so maybe I'm the only person reading this that is clueless! I am your sissy!)
ReplyDeleteI didn't understand it...it involved a ball and throwing it and something that looked like a soccer goal. I'll have to Google it. :)
ReplyDeleteI feel better. You were there watching it and didn't get it, so how on earth should I know what it is? :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA... I'm just going to stay out of this. :)
