I brought some empty notebooks, pens, pencils, crayons, and tape on our camping trip so everybody could make their own nature journal. I think it's the best way to remember and store all of the cool stuff you see when out in nature. Here, I'll show you how you can make one too!

Get a notebook that is a style and size that you are comfortable with. It can either be blank or lined, but spiral bound notebooks are the best type for this kind of journal.

Ni Hao class (do you remember what that means?). Kiweenie Lao Shi here again with part two of my lesson about the Chinese language. We learned how to say a few helpful phrases in our last class and I hope you've been practicing them. We've been using them a lot here in China! As you've been touring Beijing with us you've probably noticed that the spoken language is not the only part of Chinese that is very different from English.

One of my favorite books is the Dragon Slayers Academy.
It is about a boy named Wiglaf who is going to Pinwick village for a festival with his mean family. While he was walking to Pinwick, he reads a note, which was on the message tree. It was about DSA, the Dragon Slaying Academy! Wiglaf wanted to go really bad but he had to get his dad's consent. His dad asked everyone in his family except Wiglaf if they wanted to go to DSA. In the end, Wiglaf's dad thought Wiglaf was worthless in the cabbage fields (because he was so scrawny) so he decided Wiglaf could go. Wiglaf was so happy. He didn't think at all about the trouble waiting for him along the way to DSA.
