November 2 and 3
It’s a been a busy couple of days now that the conference has started. Yesterday we had a chance to set up our display and attending the opening events and today we presented our project.
Yippee! We finally got our display set up.
There are lots of pictures of students on the display.
This is Mr. Toft’s badge. It’s very humbling to get to wear a badge like this all day. There educators from all over the world doing amazing things like bringing schools to places where there were none. One teacher in Africa has her students taking pictures of local plant life and finding medicinal value in them.
Here are a very few of the other projects:
South Africa
Mexico
Sweden
Singapore
Last night we were treated to a spectacular demonstration of martial arts, drumming and dance.
It was hard to get a good picture of the people doing martial arts because they moved so quickly!
The drummers, singer…
…and dancers.
Today also included a speech from the governor of Bahia, kind of like hearing a speech from our provincial premier. We also hear from the head of the education part of Microsoft. Mr. Toft and I even made it into one of the slides of Michael Golden’s presentation:
See the red shirts in the bottom right corner?
That’s Mr. Toft and me!
We recorded people saying their name and where they are from as they visited our booth and had them add music. I’ll add it to this blog once I add some final touches to it.
I hope everyone is doing well. Please write and say hello. I’d love to know how and what you are all doing.

Madame Smith!
Tu es formidable! Je pense que ton affiche (sign) est le plus réaliste. J’aime beaucoup lire de tes aventures et tu as l’air très heureux dans toutes les photos.
À bientôt à South March,
Madame Rudick
