Giant Bicycles!

We want to send out a huge thank you to Giant bikes! They sent us quite the care package today to support our trip! It is sooo cool that a major bike company would get behind E2 Quest! Thanks to the parent that talked to Giant and to our local bike shop that added some charm! This is very exciting! The kids were THRILLED to see the stuff that Giant sent!! Thanks again! 2EE

The Theater

Yesterday we took a break from preparing for the trip and we went to Little Red Riding Hood at the Old Log Theater. We loved the play and had a great time.

Planning

We are only about 10 school days away from trip and we are talking about what a day will look like and what jobs we will need to do.
Today I talked with a parent of a kid in our class and she said her goal is to make at least one persons day each day. What a great goal! I can feel a blab coming!

Movin' and Shaking!

We are moving in 2EE. We made a movie on Tuesday and it was great. Today we are performing 3 times. The music program we are doing is awesome! I think that we will be able to put a link on the blog so you can listen to the songs. We should have charged for tickets, we could have used the money for our trip! It is that good!

Learning Carol

We made a class movie today called "The Learning Carol," based on the Dickens classic. Maybe we could sell it to make money for our trip!?

Getting Closer!

We have our budget figured out and we have been looking at maps. The training is going great and we continue to get stronger. We will be packing supplies and getting ready to leave for our journey for the next couple of weeks! Wish us luck!

GPS II

We used the GPS yesterday. It works by tuning into satellites in outer space. It shows us exactly where we have been and how fast we are going. It will be a great way to stay on track on our trip!

GPS

I am so excited by the snow! Today we are going to use a GPS at recess. It will map our movements and tell us how fast we are going. How, you might ask? I will tell you tomorrow.

Maps

We have been looking at maps. Maps are fascinating. There are some many interesting places on the planet and everyone of them has its own story. Life is delicious!
