My students love ketchup. To a nauseating degree, in my opinion. It goes on everything! Chicken, fries, rice, mashed potatoes, ketchup. They just can't get enough. One of our recent math sheets had the word spelled 'catsup' instead of the more common 'ketchup' and my kids found it to be the funniest thing ever!
Anyways, it seems I need to play 'catch-up' with my blog! ...whoops.
Let's see, in the last two months(ish) I have:
~Spent a few days in Gibraltar/Southern Spain.
~Experienced Carnival. And a lovely day by the Med Sea!
~Lesson-planned like it was my job. Oh wait, it is.
~Greeted another friend here in Morocco (Kelsy!!).
~Ventured to the desert with Kelsy. On camel-back of course, because that's how we roll.
~Called in 'sick' for a day.
~Went to the zoo that same day. I felt much better ;)
~Celebrated a dear friend/mentor/mom/co-worker's birthday. Happy '89th' deary ;)
~Learned about the various cultures at our school by sampling food. Yum.
~Cheered on two of my little guys in the first ever GWA Spelling Bee. One was named 2nd grade champ!
~Purchased fresh strawberries everyday for a solid week. I love strawberry season!
~Been roommate less for a week. And enjoyed it a little too much.
~Baked muffins. They were delicious.
~Eaten out far too much. But that's not a complaint!
~Saw lights/art come alive at a random event here in Casa.
~Received a few videos and lots of pictures of one adorable nephew... can't wait to snuggle that kid!
~Art projects. (there were too many verbs to select from.)
~Laid on the roof and got some color. It may have been red. Also, freckles. Still. (Sidenote: Dad, remember that time you said they would be probably be gone by the time I was 16... wrong. You were wrong.)
~Watched Captain America. In IMAX. 3D. Captain America is a beautiful man ;)
~Received lots of hugs and high-fives.
~Prepared for conferences (hopefully more details on that to come...)
and ~Planned out some things for my last few months here in Morocco.
