Time flies!

One day closer to leaving, and one day less to get everything done at my 2 schools. I'm most excited about some projects I have in the works here in Wisconsin to interact with the students in New Zealand. Time is short for everyone here and I appreciate the help my staff is giving! 3rd grade is studying oceans so I'm giving a lesson on the unique ocean environment surrounding New Zealand. New Zealand took a simple idea of setting aside entire ecosystems off their coasts for protection, and watched an ocean revival. (see National Geographic April 2007)In the fall I'll share new knowledge I've gained along with first hand accounts and of course pictures!
