A New President... In MEXICO!

Many of you may have heard your parents talking about the new President of Mexico. His name is Felipe Calderon, and I would like for you to read this article and read more about him.

Felipe Calderon, the new President of Mexico!

There is also some good information about why some people are excited to have him as President, and others are concerned that he may not help everyone. Tell me what you think!

You might also use the Yahooligans link to look for more information about him.

Please remember that your answers should be serious and thoughtful... and only leave your initials to let me know who you are! I trying to keep the alien kidnappers out of our school! :-)

Welcome Back!

I hope you enjoyed your long weekend - I know I did! :-)

We are getting ready to start studying the early explorers of North America. Use this link to look for information on one of the explorers on the site.
