International Fair

I had a wonderful time in China and Argentina! As Henry said so well, "They really went all out!"

Please say any new learning from either one of these experiences! Also, please share activities or foods that you particularly enjoyed.

  7. I really enjoyed both but my favorite was Argentina because of the snow (fake), the handprints and the bracelet making. I loved China because of the rice cookies and the fireworks I got front row seats! It was the best International Fair ever!

  9. International fair is one of my favorite times of the year! I LOVED both China and Argentina! In Argentina I learned that the hunters put their hand print in caves to mark their territory. And in China I found out I was born in the year of the monkey! They said in China they believe that they will be like that animal in a way and my nick name is Monkey!

  10. Since I was sick and didn't get to see China I am going to type about Argentina. I loved making the leather bracelet that I am currently wearing and also I enjoyed eating the desserts and drinking the tea. It was really cool to hike through the snowy mountains and just walking in to Argentina was really fun. I really liked putting my hand print on the cave and I was sad to leave.

    2. It had more trees and vines than I expected at the beginning.
    Here are some things I learned about China

  14. Well my favorite part was the food, I loved the roll but not only the taste but also because Muslims make rolls also. I also liked the Argentina food because I love Caremel! I thought the Cave of Hands and the walking through the snow was fun. I will miss inter national fair till next year I thought they looked amazing.

  15. I learned that China's maine food is noodles, dumplings, and rice. I also really liked the China rice cakes. In Argentina, I learned it was one of the largest countries.

  16. I loved both countries, but what was really intresting is that in Agentina people put paint on thier hands and go into and cave and write stories by putting hand pints. I also learned that China is the fourth largest coutry in the world and Agentina is the eighth largest. I also learned that coyboys hammer thier initiols into a lether strap, and that people hike snowy mountains about ninty-two miles long! I also thought the spring festival in China was pretty cool, and the story of the chinese zodiac, the fact why cats dislike was interesting because in the race the rat pushed the rat out of the way so he would win, im guessing thats why cats don't like water because they had a bad experiance? And the rat riding on the ox's back, that was unfair, i just got to say one thing, THE RAT IS A DIRTY LITTLE CHEATER! Over all I had a great time at both China and Agentina and every country i've been to before this year! AND that is my weekly blog report!
