Day 2 Fiona and Bibi

Hello 'tis my second day of these shenanigans. Today Prodigy stopped working so I only got like 10 to 20 questions done :( But I did get to do a lot of Duolingo and I think I'm getting the hang of Spanish :D "Tū bebo agua" which translates 
to "I drink water". Nice, eh?

 I also Facetimed with my grandma to ask her some questions about her experience when she went to The Great Wall Of China.

 Plus, of course, some band, physical activity (bleh), and typing.

 And this thing called Cincinnati zoo live stream.
It was on hippos.
Basically it was a 20-ish minute video on hippos with a small test at the end. Only thing was that it was on Facebook (used my mom's account, alternative directions below) and to do the small test you needed to enter your email (for a contest).

 Stuff from today:
Look for Cincinnati Zoo Live Stream on Facebook or check out this news article to watch a video on Fiona and Bibi from March 17, 2010.  Take the quiz once you watch the video.  Today they have Koalas!!!  They also have a YouTube channel where you can find a video of Fiona running!!!

 Resource suggestions from our friend Jordyn:
Potterless Podcast - from a guy whose has never read Harry Potter or watched the movies.  Throughout the podcast he reads the books, analyzes them and make fun of plot holes.  According to Jordyn it is very funny!

 Welcome to Nightvale - fun science fiction show, radio host reporting on his desert town where weird event are the norm.  Pick up wherever!

 Also try Critical Role (search Google for this podcast, several viewing options) and Adventure Zone - basically a Dungeons and Dragons campaign.

Day 10 School is going online!

Socially distanced learning is going online with my actual teachers! So my school is going to be on the computer! Yay! I love my mom, who was making me do work, but I liked Mr B. and Ms C.'s teaching better. Sorry, mom! Friday was a PD day, so no work yay. Today mom let me and my sibling have a day off, because of school starting again virtually, so we played Minecraft, made a chocolate-peppermint cake but we had no peppermint so it was really just a chocolate cake. The recipe is below. We also did a Harry Potter escape room, which was fun.  As always, I still did my math, because I'm a nerd. Stuff from today: Visit the  Hogwarts Digital Escape Room  from a Youth Services Librarian at the  Peters Township Public Library We made Chocolate Peppermint Cake . Most of the recipes that we have made come from the Special Collector's Edition of Everyday Foods from 2007 (Holiday). We have been finding the links to the recipes so that you can make them too!

Day 1 of my socially distance learning journey

Hi! Welcome to my life of being quarantined/lock downed/social distanced but still having to do school work because nothing is more important than education, right?  Yeah, okay. So first day, motivation is small, but we're all good, so I did some jot notes on the Great Wall of China, watched a video on it, did a virtual field trip of it, (both of which are underneath), did some unrelated English ( Dreamscape ) and Math ( Prodigy ). AND guess what? It's only lunch. My afternoon plan is practicing my instrument (band), learning how to crochet (life skills), walking the dog (physical education), learning Spanish on Duolingo , then a typing course . Ha... What fun this is. Stuff today- The Great Wall of China.  (n.d.)  https://www.thechinaguide.com/destination/great-wall-of-china . World Heritage: Acropolis & Great Wall [Video file]. (2008). Film Ideas. Retrieved March 17, 2020, from Kanopy.  Kanopy is probably available through your school or public library....
