Preparing to Go!
What a whirlwind kind of day! Our group from Carolina Forest Forest International Elementary School leaves with the Northside district schools tomorrow. It has been a busy day with packing, getting the family coordinated, unpacking, packing again, checking for the passport, etc. I hate to be away from the family but I am very excited to be heading to Belize tomorrow! The opportunity to visit schools such as La Isla Bonita and to work with their students and staff is very exhiliarting. We (Mrs. Candela, Ms. Gholson, Mrs. Martinez and I) will try to make sure that we update this blog each day. Oh, I forgot to mention-we will have five Eagles traveling to Belize. I will be taking Flat Jasey from Mrs. Davis' Kindergarten class with me. Flat Jasey is excited too! Check out this picture-we are packed and ready to go! (My cat, Disney, will not be going!).
Have a great night everyone!

ReplyDeletedo they take EOG there.
Hi Darren!
DeleteThe students in Belize do take tests similar to EOGS but they are based on their curriculum. They take exams at the end of each marking period.
Great question!
i liked your blog how is the school in belize diffrent from ours from silberio in mrs.porterfeilds class.
ReplyDeleteHi Silberio!
DeleteThere are 900 students in the San Pedro Roman Catholic School. They have religion classes, there are no air conditioners and the classrooms do not have as many things as we have in ours.
Great question!
Etienne from mrs.porterfield
ReplyDeleteclass what is the weather like and i like the shark picture

The school is much smaller than ours. There is one bathroom for 900 students.
DeleteThe weather is warm and humid. The average temperature is 90 degrees.
Great questions!

ReplyDeleteHi Gabby!
DeleteThe water is warm-it is not cold at all. We are having a good time but we miss our Carolina Forest Eagles!
Awesome! I hope you have alot of fun over there. I love the pictures and i love the way someone grabbed a shark! I got a question, though. How long is their ressec? Do they have a Cafeteria? Do they even have ressec!?! From Mrs.Porterfield's Class Ann Hoffler
ReplyDeleteThe younger students get a 15 minute break, the older students get two 15 minute breaks. Everyone has an hour and a half for lunch and a lot of the students just run around and play then.
DeleteI love that shark picture too!
How is your time in the Ocean.What is it like there and how is the food at the airport?Frome Quincy in Mrs.Porterfield's class.
ReplyDeleteOur time in the ocean is great! There are a lot of options at the Atlanta airport, but it does not compare to the food in Belize.
DeleteThe food must be great.What time do the chilrden get off of scool. from david jefferson in mrs poterfeild class

from Zoriah Mrs.porterfield
ReplyDeletewhat kind of books do they use
Hi Zoriah!
DeleteThey do not have a lot of reading books like we have for AR. They have workbooks that they use in some of the classes.
Have a great adventure! How do they write? Hope you come back safely! From Devin Kohut in Mrs. Porterfield's class.
ReplyDeleteStudents use pencils and composition books to do a lot of their writing. They take notes in class every day.
DeleteThanks!
Do the students have different cultures?
ReplyDeleteAre you having fun?
Do the schools have a big cafeteria just like us?
Do they have recess?
I hope you have answers for all my questions!
From: Emma in Mrs.Porterfield's class.
Hi Emma!
DeleteWe are having fun!
The school does not have a cafeteria like us. There is small kitchen room that students can buy food and drinks if they have money. Most students will go away from the school at lunch.
I read that Belize is considered a country of immigrants with Creole, Garifuna, Maya, Mestizo, East Indian, Chinese, Central and North Americans making Belize their home. There is a variety of different people and cultures.

ReplyDeletedo they take test
Hi Etienne!
DeleteStudents do have tests.
I liked the ray,by the way was that ray have writeing on it.Do they wear the same cloths? From Jaliyah in Mrs.porterfields class
ReplyDeleteI like that ray too. When I am able to go back and look at my pictures, I will be able to tell you the name that was on it. It is hot in Belize. Most people wear shorts, tshirts-clothes that we may wear at home. Of course, people dress according to their jobs and students wear school uniforms.
DeleteGood morning eagles i have a question for you do the belize have small or big classrooms like some classes do in Cfes and do some classrooms in trailers?
