Sincerely,
Miss McLaughlin's dad
That's a great story! I think I would have been nervous to swim in water that deep too.

Dear Bailey,
ReplyDeleteEarth's Extreme Places! What an interesting topic to research. Mount Everest is definitely a very tall mountain. Do you know that 29,028 feet equals about 5 1/2 miles? Can you imagine trying to climb that mountain? Do you know that a man plans to BASE jump from Mount Everest next month? We have to watch the Discovery Channel to see him attempt this Extreme Sport!
Thanks for sharing!
Sincerely,
Your Mommy
I didn't know that anyone would try to jump off of the mountain.
DeleteSincerely,
Bailey
Dear Rahil,
ReplyDeleteI did not know that Sangay was the most active volcano in the world. I also did not know that Sangay erupted 400 times in one day. Thanks for sharing.
Sincerely,

Dear Jordan, I never knew that Sangay was over the Amazon rainforest.
ReplyDeleteYour Friend,

Dear third graders. What a great job you all did with your research. I think I would like to visit Angel Falls after hearing how high it is. Active volcanoes are a little too scary for me!

Dear Branimir,
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I have never before read about the White Mountain. It think that it is amazing that most of the mountain is under the sea level! Nevertheless, the view from the top must be beautiful. Perhaps, you could go and visit it one day and see for yourself.
Love,
Mom
It would take a long time to climb that mountain.

ReplyDeleteGood job on your research. I learn something new everyday. I did not realize that the Sangay erupted 400 times. That is amazing. I would love to see the volcano one day.
Your Dad
Dear Bailey,
ReplyDeleteI found your information and facts on Mount. Everest to be interesting and inviting. Many people have attempted to climb Mt. Everest, but few have been successful. Joby Ogwyn the youngest American (at age 24) to climb Mount Everest will be the first to attempt wingsuit flight off the summit of Mount Everest. His jump has been measured to be 10,000 vertical feet. This first wingsuit jump is being advertised by Discovery Channel as "Everest Jump Live" will air in May. Joby's wingsuit is a MUST SEE!!! I must set DVR. I would love to go to the Himalayas to SEE, NOT CLIMB OR JUMP OFF Mount Everest!
Love,
Grommy
Dear Rahil,
ReplyDeleteYour information on the Sangay volcano as the most active volcano in the world is interesting. Hopefully it is not too destructive when it erupts. I would like to go Ecuador and take a sightseeing tour of Sangay.

Dear 3rd graders,
ReplyDeleteI love your blog!! Today I've learned a lot about beautiful places I would like to visit. Who knew that Maua Kea was that tall!! Please keep posting!
Aleix from Nassau (now figure out where that is...)
Dear uncle Aleix,
DeleteYes, I know were that is. That is the capital of the Bahamas.I also know that you were there on a business trip there.
Your nephew,
Branimir
Dear Branimir,
DeleteI noticed that your class is tracking the location of people who respond to your blog. Have you marked the Bahamas? I did not see it on the map, or maybe I was not looking at the correct spot. Do you know how to find it on the map and how long it takes to get there from Columbia, MD? Also, do you know what is the climate there? Is it tropical, subtropical or something completely different? What is the primary language spoken there? Is it mostly a tourist spot? If not, what sort of trades do the natives do other there?
Please, let me know if you happen to research it.
Love,
Mama
Dear Kevin,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the information on Mount Everest. I've always been interested but never had the time to do the research. Who knew it's peak was so high? Keep up the good work!
Dad!
Dear Eden,
ReplyDeleteWow that's the highest waterfall I've ever heard of.
Your friend,

Dear Preston,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading the historical information on Sangay. Wow, it's almost 400 years
when the first volcano eruption was historically reported. Great Job!!!
Ms. Pat (from your Dad's job)
Dear Bailey,
ReplyDeleteHave you ever thought about climbing Mt. Everest? I imagine that it would be very hard but that you would feel very accomplished. Bailey, how cool would it be to see land standing atop the 29,028 foot mountain?
Sincerely,
Ms. Carrie (from your mom's work)
Dear Mrs.Carrie,
DeleteThank you for participating in my class blog.
I don't think that I would make it to the top the mountain.
Sincerely,
Bailey
Dear Bailey Bop,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading and learning about these awesome places. You and your fellow classmates are extrordinary scholars and I couldn't be more proud. If we ever decide to take a trip to the top of Mount Everest, you will have to bring brownies (with walnuts, of course) because the pancakes will get cold by the time we get to the top.
Keep up the great work!
Love,
Aunt Kiki

Dear Aunt KiKi,
DeleteThank you for the wonderful message and your good pancakes!
I promise to bring the brownies. "Brownies for my brownie?"
Love,

Dear Bailey,
ReplyDeleteYour information on Mt Everest was very interesting. Did you know that people who have climbed the mountain have left so much trash up there that the Nepalese government now requires everyone who climbs up to bring 17.5 pounds of trash down with them to help clean up the mountain? It's sad that people litter that much, but I'm glad people are helping to clean it up.
Good job on you blog post!
Mr. Dave (Ms. Carrie's husband)
Dear Mr.Dave,
DeleteThanks for the blog post.
Do you think that's a lot of trash to carry down the mountain? I do!
Thumbs down to littering! 👎
Sincerely,
Bailey
Dear Kevin,
ReplyDeleteThe information about Mount Everest was very interesting! I never knew that it was the tallest mountain ever. And it is also amazing that a person would attempt to climb the mountain.

Dear Brandon,
ReplyDeleteWe really loved your article about the Sangay volcano! Your article was filled with very cool facts; things that we didn't know. Like the fact that the volcano erupted over 400 times in a single day; that's amazing! We never knew that a volcano could erupt that many times. Pretty cool facts. I guess it would be kind of cool to take a field trip to a volcano huh??
Love,
Mom and Dad.
Dear Philip,
ReplyDeleteHave you thought about surfing in Bay of Fundy? I didn't know it went that high.
