Last Day of Summer School!

Thanks so much for taking the time to read our blog! We really appreciated the almost 100 comments and nearly 1,000 pageviews. The students won't have any posts describing our final day, but feel free to look at the pictures for "Day 10". The students finished their thank you notes, addressed the envelopes, explored the Heritage Tree Museum, and a had a picnic with food from all over the world. Thanks again for all your support these past two weeks; a lot of learning and fun took place!

Eating Brunch at Dairy Queen



Ordering at Dairy Queen was my first time because I've never gone to eat there before. But now, I know mostly everything about what I can order. I'm not scare no more about that, I just try my best to order. Also I know how to call the food name and also i can order all of the foods well actually just the food that I like and if I can buy it all.








Before we went to Dairy Queen we were learning about the money and what are the coins call. They're a lot of bills like they're  way more bigger than 100 dollar bill it could go up to 100,000 but only who are ḧighter" in society. Most normal people ho work for the rest of their lives are most likely to just see the 100 dollar bills and lower but they're bills that are like WAY HIGHER! Well I hope that everyone gets to see one of the dollars that are very rarely seen with people like us. (sorry for no picture, but there wasn't any fom the morning well hope you enjoy this)

Good lunch to eat

Yesterday in the morning we learn how to use money like coin, dollar, credit, and debit. For example, you could buy food with a dollar, credit, debit, or coin. But you need to have enough money to buy the thing that you want. But if you don't have any dollar, then you could use your credit and debit card too. That is all the thing that we have learn in the morning of yesterday.

Yesterday at the afternoon we go to dairy queen and learn how to ordering food. It was a nice place to sit down and eat food. Went we buy food, we pay them the money of how much the food cost. Then we get some change back if only we pay more than the food cost. For example, if the food only cost $5 and we don't have $5 but we have $10, then we could pay them by $10 and get $5 back. That is what we did yesterday at dairy queen. It was a fun day and that is the most happy day ever of the summer school.

9th Day , Dairy Queen

That day in the morning we learned the names of the coins and money. For example in the coins we have pennies that is 1 cent, nickels that are 5 cents or 5 pennies, dimes that are 10 cents or 10 pennies and cores that are 25 cents or 25 pennies.We have money of different quantity, $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 there the dollars bills that usually we see or we have but are others higher bills that usually have them the rich people.


We also learned how to order food, so we went to Dairy Queen to practice how to do that and of course for eat some.When we were there we ordered food and they made us more questions that the questions that we practiced, some of us asked for help.The food doesn't was too expensive so the most of us bought some of food and everybody was having funny talking about different things and taking pictures.























Day 9th Go To The Dairy Queen

  Yesterday we learn about money. We learn how to use coins and bills and change back. We learned how to order foods at a restaurant. We practice with our peers how to order food we need it to know the name of the food and how much is it. We have to know the food names. After ordering food we need to say thank you.




It was a good experience for the people who order food for the first time.  You have to we ready for the order when the server ask. The food in the restaurant was not that expensive. The server have to work hard to remember the order. If you eat there the server will serve for you if you tell that is to go the server will put it in the bag. If you tell  them that you going to eat there they will bring you food in the plate.

DaY 9: Ice Cream

 At the morning we learned about money, ordering and we learned about the credit, debit, bank. Also, we learned how to say the food name. When we came to the Dairy Queen, they will ask at the end that "do you like to go or for here"? and always at the end we have to say thank you. Then they tell us how much the price is, as we give then the correct money.




We had a lot of fun ordering and looking at new foods. Well the best part was to eat. As you can see our friend enjoying his meal, with a big smile.



Well it was for sure one of the best days of this project. We learn language by talking to new friends.
We had lots of fun, ordering foods, eating with friends, and enjoy our best day.

Fun Fun Time Learning How To Order Foods At Dairy Queen!

      In the morning before we go to DQ, we were learning about how to ordering food. We look in the pictures and see what kind of foods are there in Dairy Queen. We practiced our ordered with our partner. Then we learned kinds of coin and dollar bills. It is safe to put your money in the back and you can also make money by saving it there.
     After we practiced how to order and use money, we went to DQ to used the knowledge that we learned. We were nervous and excited before we get in to DQ. But when we get in there, everyone were having fun
and enjoy their foods. And last every tables were full of food and smiles. It was a good time and nice to see everyone tried and happy with their foods.








                                                                                   

Morning activities and Dairy Queen


     Today in the morning we did some good activities over money and ordering food. I learned about the names of coins, dollars and how to do some math.  When Mrs. Hernandez started asking us how you called the ten cents coin I didn't know its name but gladly now I know it, it is called a dime. 
This really helped us get prepared when going to Dairy Queen because we use money to pay and knowing how to use the money it's very important. Our next activity was ordering food with partners, Mrs. Green wrote a sentence in the board so we could start that way.


Later after we all had practiced we headed over to Dairy Queen, I'm not going to lie that I was very nervous because it was my first time ordering something and in front of Mrs. Green. What I ordered was a packet of a hamburger with a drink, ice cream and fries or onions, it was very cheap, it was worth only five dollars. I had a good experience today and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to be more comfortable next time I go to a fast food restaurant and order for family and friends.

the day to buy a car

Yesterday we go to Fitzpatrick and we learn about credit score. If you want to buy a car you need to have a good credit score and if you don't have enough money to buy a car, the Fitzpatrick will let you loan to buy a car. But if your credit score is bad then you can't buy a car and that is very important to you.That is what we have learn at the Fitzpatrick, and we also learn about the other credit card too. It very fun to learn about this thing.

We saw the Fitzpatrick building  and what they do. Also they show us how can get credit score and what is a good credit score and a bad credit score.They told us to get a good credit score we have to do our payments on time.Also we saw the body shop and server center,there are many type of cars.we saw sports cars like a corvette c7 and camaro ss an electric car and utility cars but the best part was when they spoke to us if we want a car is important have a good credit score.

8th day, Fitzpatricks





The day that we went to Fitzpatrick's they told us about the importance of having a good credit score to be able to buy a car, borrow money, buy a house and others expensive things. We need credit to buy some of these items. To have good credit we have to pay bills on time, be responsible with credit and debit cards, but if we don't have good credit we can also pay with cash if we have the money to pay a car.

Fitzpatrick's has a service center with 11 people, body shop, collision repair with 4 people, and you can take your car and they can repair any car, they have 50 different jobs at their company. Another interesting fact about Fitzpatrick's is that you have a guarantee on your car if you buy it there. Something important that we also learned is that we must be 18 to buy a car, another way to buy a car is that our parents buy it for us.
