¿Qué hay de comer?

In the United States students eat lunch in school. Yankton High School has over 900 students. 900 students cannot sit in the cafeteria at the same time. If you are a fourth year student (a senior) you may leave school and eat lunch at home or in a café. The other students eat A lunch or B lunch. A lunch begins at 11:22 and ends at 11:48. B lunch begins at 12:18 and ends at 12:44. Students must eat very quickly. Because there are many students in the cafeteria it is noisy. Do you think this is a good idea? Do you eat lunch quickly? What is your favorite lunch?

Un chiste sobre educación moderna

BRRRR!!!...It's cold!!

We have been having VERY cold weather. The weather has not been this cold for more than 20 years. Monday, Jan. 6th, we had no classes because the cold was dangerous. Busses and cars would not start and there was a danger of frostbite/hypothermia if skin was not covered –very dangerous for ears and noses. For fun, we boil water, put the hot water in a cup and go outside. When you throw the water into the air, it freezes immediately and falls to the ground as ice. Then we come back inside to drink hot chocolate or tea. Saturday it will be warm – we are hoping 7 or 8 degrees Celsius. It will be nice to leave the house without gloves, hats, scarves, and big boots.
