On Tuesday, after I wrote, we showed the powerpoint to Virginia´s classroom. That classroom really enjoyed watching pictures of themselves on the TV. They laughed every time a new picture came up. I do not think they understood perfectly everything about the letter exchange, but we tried to explain it as clearly as possible. We kept asking them where they had gotten letters from, what language they were written on, etc.

Yesterday (Thursday) I went to read the letters in my classroom more calmly. I read each one in english, and translated.

Today, I went to give them letter 1 from Amy. Only 12 students were in my class today. Before recess they went to the computer lab to watch a Xuxa dvd, and afterwards, they watched a play

Im at the computer lab..

at Gustavo Barroso! Today was a very productive day. Virginia and I got here at 8. My classroom was already in the computer lab, playing an alphabet game, a pair on each computer. At 830 we showed my classroom the powerpoint presentation of them that we sent to the kids in Logan. They really enjoyed seeing pictures of themselves. We also finally gave them letter 1 from Maria. We also watched the powerpoint presentation Marias class sent of Logan and their classroom. Right now it is Virginia´s classroom recess, but afterwards, we are going to do the same with her classroom.

On Thursday, my classroom is going to write letter 2 to Amy.
