CALLING ALL TEACHERS

Today I discovered that I have a room full of teachers!  I though I had eighteen students, but all of a sudden at 10:30 they became teachers.  We're transitioning from writing How To Books into Teaching Books or Information Books.  We closed our eyes and thought really hard about things we knew a whole bunch about.  Here's what we came up with.

• dirt biking
• dogs
• pulling out teeth
• hamsters
• drawing dogs
• taking care of dogs
• archery
• riding bikes

• painting
• sharks
• drawing the Maroon Bells
• cartwheels
• taming cobras
• handstands
• fishing
• football

So, if you need some expert advice you know where to look!

Also, last Friday Leila was the Historian of the Week...

Daredevil Tightrope Walker Nik Wallenda Makes Chicago Skyscraper Crossings

Leila told us about how Nik Wallenda tightrope walked between skyscrapers in Chicago.  His first walk went uphill between two buildings. The first one was 571 feet and the second one was 688 feet.  His second walk went back downhill AND he was blindfolded.  He broke a Guiness World Record.  Ike wanted to know if there were people watching.  Leila said yes! Devon wanted to know if he was dared to do it or just a little crazy.  Leila said it wasn't a dare!

AND...Happy Birthday Gavin!  Thanks for the Bronco's Donuts.  What a treat!
