September 19, 2013 was the day I traveled over ten countries, all in one day. I went to countries like: Spain, Germany, Australia, and Brazil. I enjoyed my visit too all these countries. My favorite country of all had to be Mr. Osgood's class room. When I walked in, I was greeted with an Australian accent. I felt like I was truly in Australia. I love how cold he made the classroom while we were in Antarctica. We were escorted around the country and were offered some Australian treats. Towards the end of the trip we were surprised with a stampede of cute Kangaroos and a vicious Alligator, but of course our tour guide protected us from the Alligator. There were so many great countries like Mexico, where we dressed in traditional clothing and fun masks. While in Italy, we enjoyed an amazing singing number from one of the Italians on a boat. We also had portraits painted by an amazing Italian artist (Donald Laundry). We also arrived in Greece, where we were greeted by Greek goddess. Afterwards we traveled to Espana, where we gained a lot of information and enjoyed their beverage. In Russia we learned about the St. Cathedral and its ice cream cone colors. Mrs. Beird introduced us to South America, were we were surrounded by monkeys and a beautiful water fall. Classes like Mrs. Samtoy's , were we landed in Mauritius , which is a beautiful Island , with colorful sand. She provided lots of information about Mauritius and also provided a dance along with a lullaby. Then we toured Mrs. Divine's countries, we were given information about China, and their traditional clothing. We were served a Chinese dish called Egg rolls. We also went to Mrs. Moyer's class, were we in Ireland. We watched an Irish dance on the screen, and had Apple Cider. Overall each class room in Alessandro did an outstanding job. All classes provided good information, humor, and items that grabbed everyone’s attention which made International day so amazing.
