Where I'm From Poems

As part of our global collaboration, my students created poems that tell a little about themselves.  We hope that this will tell our Brazilian friends what our interests, hobbies, culture and personalities are like.  We would love it if you would make comments on our writing and let us know what you think.  We look forward to reading your poems as well and learning more about the Brazilian culture. :)

A day in the life of a Brazilian student

Check out this massa video made by Alex's students in Teresina, Brasil.  It shows what his students do each day and what their routines are.  How is their day different from or the same as yours?
