What are you doing this summer?

I am very excited to head back to Mexico with my family this July! We plan to spend a lot of time enjoying the crystal blue waters, where we will snorkel until our hearts' content... we love to see the fishies! Emma and I will also be visiting our favorite place on EARTH- Xcaret! See photos above!! We will touch tropical birds, feed monkeys and swim with dolphins... all in the same day. When the sun goes down, we will watch ancient Mayan fire shows, as we are HUGE history buffs! I plan to eat exotic food (cooked by anyone but ME), spend time with my family and enjoy every second of our tropical vacation! What are your plans this summer?? I am very curious to hear what you are up to!! Please let me know. If you have any pictures to post, you can email me at kdibattista@ojrsd.com and I would LOVE to post your stories and pictures! Talk to me soon! Love, (as usual) Mrs. DiBattista :)

Teacher trouble getting comments to work on Blogger- Check here!

Hello teachers!  This is for those of you trying to set up a Blogger/Blogspot account and get the comments feature to actually work... the trick is simple- you need to update your time zone to the correct one to get the comments to post.  Time zone fiddling can be done under the "settings" tab in the "language and formatting" area.  I couldn't find my exact time zone that I am familiar with, so I chose the closest one I could find and made sure the times really matched after I "saved settings"- then my comments posted and so did my friend's when I was helping her set up a blog. 

I also have a teacher blog that helps if you are starting a classroom blog, check it out at www.kdibat.wordpress.com and if there is something I can help with, don't hesitate to ask!  Happy Summer Vacation!!
