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 13 & 14 First day of school

So school started again! We did some basic English today and will be working on math and science later on. This is via google classroom and zoom, which is saving our lives. My sibling did the scavenger hunt riddle math thing that I did in Minecraft and enjoyed it, so I'm happy about that. I also talked to one of my friends this morning for half an hour. I did a Kahoot with the Rainbow PYY and came in second! That was really fun and I liked it.  But anyways, hope y'all are staying safe and enjoying life! Yesterday we made brownies, again from our favourite special edition of Everyday Foods from Martha Stewart.  Here is the recipe if you are interested in trying it.

Day 6 & 7 Bored bored bored

I'm sorry about not posting yesterday, I was really bored. I'm sure some of y'all feel the same. Nothing I did yesterday was noteworthy anyways. Today I tried to be more productive, I did some prodigy, worked on an English project we were doing at school, drew for an hour (art), did some Duolingo, took the dog for a walk and practiced Saxophone. Pretty good. Still kinda bored, but oh well, whatcha gonna do?
