FG’s class is working on a recycling project this month and they got on the topic of alternative fuel. FG came home yesterday and told me she mentioned to the social studies teacher about the Bio-fuel made from coconuts which we saw on the Coconut Factory tour in Majuro, Republic of the Marshall Island, Micronesia.
The teacher then asked her “Where’s Majuro?” When FG said “Micronesia”, the teacher walked over to the computer and started doing her own Internet search. 🙂
FG would do well as a “helper” on the “Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?” At least she would know the geography questions. Click here to check out your geography smarts! And for my friends who live/lived in Germany, click here.

Pete is so right ~ she’s a smart teacher. I don’t blame her for not knowing where Majuro is ~ it’s a tiny atoll in the middle of the pacific. But good for her for looking it up!
That’s the joy of travel ~ we learn so much along the way.

Pete says, at least the teacher was smart enough to quit asking questions and start researching herself. LOL.
