The 6th graders at Chichester Central School in Chichester, New Hampshire (USA), would like to invite you to participate in our blog. We have created a blog, which we hope will allow us to explore varying diets from around the world. Our goal is to understand what other country’s diets consist of and what they consider to be healthy. Here in New Hampshire, we eat a lot of seafood and lobsters as we are so close to the Atlantic Ocean. We also grow and eat fresh corn, apples, strawberries, blueberries and even pumpkins. If you are interested, please visit our blog at cgagnon.edublogs.org and respond to the “World Diets” page. If you respond, it would be helpful if you could include which country or area of the world you are responding from. If you are not interested, it would be much appreciated if you could pass this along to a friend or colleague that may be.
We here in New Hampshire look forward to your response. Thanks

De 6e klassers van Chichester Central School in Chichester, New Hampshire (VS), wil u graag uitnodigen om deel te nemen aan onze blog. We hebben een blog, waarvan wij hopen dat ons in staat stellen in verschillende diëten ontdekken uit de hele wereld. Ons doel is om te begrijpen wat andere land diëten bestaan en wat zij beschouwen als gezond. Hier in New Hampshire, we eten veel van zeevruchten en kreeften als we zijn zo dicht bij de Atlantische Oceaan. We hebben ook groeien en eten verse mais, appels, aardbeien, bosbessen en zelfs pompoenen. Als u geïnteresseerd bent, kunt u terecht op onze blog op cgagnon.edublogs.org en reageren op het "World Diets" pagina. Als u reageert, zou het nuttig zijn als je kon ook welk land of gebied van de wereld u reageert uit. Indien u niet geïnteresseerd bent, dan zou het veel op prijs gesteld als u deze doorgeven aan een vriend of collega die kunnen worden.
Wij hier in New Hampshire kijken uit naar uw reactie. bedankt

We have a teacher participating in Wassenaar- just near you. We would love another garden in at the International School of Amsterdam! Please check us out, or pass on to your administrator:
