We did not know that the Lincoln Memorial and the Kennedy Center have flat roofs. We have never been to Washington D.C., but we would love to go.<br /><br />We have some questions for you:<br /><br />Have you or your third grade students been on Google Earth and found Washington D.C.?<br /><br />What is the mountain range you live in? <br /><br /><br />We hope you continue to leave some quality comments!<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />♥Ell♥e♥Sarah♥♥Ell♥e♥Sarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-31735028090997482432012-02-08T21:01:26.029-08:002012-02-08T21:01:26.029-08:00Dear Mrs. Yollis and Third Grade Students,
I real...Dear Mrs. Yollis and Third Grade Students,<br /><br />I really enjoyed reading your post about geography and geometry. One interesting fact I learned while visiting Washington D.C. was that the Lincoln Memorial and the Kennedy Center have flat roofs because their lives were cut short. I must admit that I was very impressed when I first saw the giant statue of Abraham Lincoln sitting in his chair. I hope that some day you all get a chance to visit Washington D.C.<br /><br />I teach third grade in Yuba City, CA. Our county is home to the smallest mountain range in the world. See if you can visit it on Google Earth.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Mrs. Reeson<br />http://reeson.edublogs.org/Mrs. Reesonhttp://reeson.edublogs.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-25321138164113800622012-02-08T09:50:55.675-08:002012-02-08T09:50:55.675-08:00Dear Class,
Good job on the post. As you have jus...Dear Class,<br /><br />Good job on the post. As you have just learned, the world is made up of geometry. It is everywhere we look, and you will all use geometry for the rest of your lives. I still use it today, especially when driving. I drive parallel to certain streets, perpendicular to others. I use geometry everyday to figure out the quickest way to get where I want to go. So you see, without knowing geometry you cannot drive. So, study away.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />Madison's Dad<br /><br />P.S. Ask Mrs. Yollis about a "hypotenuse". What a great word to know! It's the diagonal side of a right triangle, but I call it a "shortcut".Craignoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-43082537935589237952012-02-08T05:07:00.072-08:002012-02-08T05:07:00.072-08:00The Washington Monument would make an awesome sun ...The Washington Monument would make an awesome sun dial!Wm Chamberlainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06692221214846665588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-80276068451568762932012-02-07T20:54:38.266-08:002012-02-07T20:54:38.266-08:00Aloha Mrs. Yollis and third graders,

I love the National Zoo, the museums, just everything!<br />Google Earth is wonderful! I don't know how I got along without it. So many ways to explore.<br />Enjoy the rest of the week.<br />A hui hou,<br />Mrs. JacobsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-18260277516853709512012-02-07T19:15:06.453-08:002012-02-07T19:15:06.453-08:00Dear Mrs. Yollis,

Have you ever been there?<br /><br />Yes, I obviously have been on Google Earth! I think that Google Earth is fun, but also think it can be hard! I think that it is sometimes difficult, because you don't get to where you want to go. Also, you can spell things wrong!<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Sasha♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Sasha♥♥noreply@blogger.com
