A week from now, we will be half way to Québec City for our 4 day trip!  I am excited and nervous at the same time.  I want everyone to have a wonderful time and remain safe, healthy and excited while we are there!  3 nights in a very nice hotel, lots of Québec style food and tons of history to learn while we are there.  If you have been on this trip before, please leave your comments about what you thought of the trip.

We had the pleasure of hosting 6 students from France for the morning on Tuesday.  They are here with a group of 30 other students from Marseille, visiting the high school and staying with families of students who take French at the high school.  They visited with 4 of my classes and had a chance to speak English to my students.  Some of my students took advantage of trying to speak French with them.  I had a great time speaking French for most of the morning!

Collège Calypso is a school France that we are communicating with.  They now have their website up and running and I encourage you to visit:  http://clg-calypso-49.ac-nantes.fr/index.php?lng=fr  You can become a member and receive updates if you want.  What fun!

What is this??  I took this picture in Paris in 2003 and I just thought this was the coolest thing.  They seem a little safer too.  I wonder why they haven’t caught on in the US?
