It was a lovely autumn day. Although the weather forecast predicted rain, it was a magnificent 68˚ F (18˚ C)! Thanks to the parents who help with the community walk!
What was your favorite part of the walk?
Do you have any questions for the classes?
Dear Mrs Yollis and students,
ReplyDeleteI love the video of you all singing the Hello Hello song (G'day Mate)!
You all did an awesome job.
I cannot stop singing this song.
Do you like singing the Hello Hello song?
Now it is time to say Good bye Good bye, until next time.
From your blogging buddy,

Dear Mrs Yollis and class,

@ Bianca,
ReplyDeleteG'day mate! Thanks for your kind words about our singing! We had a lot of fun and sang all of the songs many times!
I ♥ how you ended with "Good bye! Good bye!" You are funny!
@ Jazmin, (in 2KJ)
G'day mate to you too! I am so glad you liked our video.
You asked why we didn't walk at our school. Although we have a big school population, we do not have a lot of play space. We could have run at school, but we would have been going around in little circles. We thought it would be better to got out and walked in our community. It was fun, but I realized that our community is very hilly!
Your mate,
Mrs. Y♥llis

@ Mrs.Yollis,
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the walk was when we got to sing the "Hello" song. I also liked that we shared our fun facts. The walk was great, I wish we could do it again. I was tired at first but I told myself not to give up!

Dear Mrs Yollis',
ReplyDelete"G'day mate again!
Thank you for writing back to me!
So now you have explained why you didn't walk in your school grounds!
Thank you for telling me why because I had no idea. I have a question for you. Did you get tired after going up the hills?

Dear Mrs. Yollis and class,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the walk. It was fun to walk with my teacher, my friends and my mom. More importantly, it was for a good cause. I am excited to help the Ugandan children get their playground.
My favorite part of the walk was singing the Hello Song. I especially liked saying hello in different languages.
Were you tired after the walk? I was, my thighs hurt!
Sincerely,
Hannah★
Dear Mrs. Yollis,
ReplyDeleteI loved our amazing walk! I wish we could do it at least 5 times a month! I enjoyed singing our hearts out with my my best friends! I sang songs with Hannah, Adia, Iman, Alexa, and Amitia. We got tired, but someone would keep the song going. What a fun day! Did you sing any songs?

@ Jasmine,
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you like the video. What I liked most about the walk was that some students got to share facts about Uganda during the walk. We also sang songs while walking. One of the songs we sang was "The Hello Song". My part was to say Hello in Russian, Privet.
How did your walk go?
