I am very excited. I am going on a trip to the country of Egypt, which is in the northern part of the continent of Africa. I will be back before too long to share my adventures with everyone! While I am in Egypt, I will be meeting with other principals and visiting schools to see how children learn and teachers teach in a country so far away from the United States! The children in Egypt all speak Arabic when they start school, but begin to learn English as their second language in the first grade. I will also be visiting colleges, museums and some remarkable ancient sites, like the Great Pyramids of Giza and the temple of the mysterious Sphinx!

Schools in Egypt-Government Experimental

Another school we visited was called Zahrain Experimental School.  The students in this school all wore uniforms.  Their school had very colorful hallways and they even had a TRAMPOLINE for the students to jump on at the end of each hallway!  There was an art, music and computer room like ours.  The students sang some songs in Arabic for us and others showed us an Egyptian dance.  Here are some photos. What are the students doing in these photos?
