Valentine's Day at FWA!
Thursday, January 16, 2014.
FWA’s second and fourth grade classes traveled the globe via Skype to Sao Paulo, Brazil on Thursday. They spoke with former FWA students Bruno and Murilo Nogueira about the similarities and differences in climate, culture, and language between the United States and Brazil.
Some interesting facts which they learned include the following:
It is currently summer in Brazil, and Sao Paulo is experiencing heavy summer thunderstorms causing lengthy power outages. Since it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere, Bruno and Murilo have been going to summer camp instead of hitting the slopes for Winter ski weekends. “South” America isn’t actually due South of North America. . .it’s actually Southeast. Sao Paulo’s time zone is 4 hours ahead of the United States’ Central Time Zone. The water in Brazil (and all Southern Hemisphere countries) turns counter clockwise when a toilet flushes. Most importantly, though, the students learned that friendships can span the globe and don’t end even when friends are separated by miles (or kilometers)!
