We Get to Meet Kay and Wolf!!!

So I just found out that we are meeting Kay and Wolf when we go to Costa Rica. I am so excited that we get to meet the Author of Walking With Wolf and the main character of the book Wolf. Not to mention, Wolf was one of the creators of the Moteverde Cheese Factory which is part of my research project. He will be able to help make my research project more factual because he was there when the Moteverde Cheese Factory was created, so he will know the history behind it. I am still amazed that I get to meet Wolf and Kay.

More Information on my Topic

I know some more about what I am doing for my research project. I will be comparing the grocery stores, restaurants, and homes, as well as a local food producer in Costa Rica versus New Hampshire. I am doing the cheese factory for Costa Rica and Stonyfield Yogurt for New Hampshire.

In the book Walking with Wolf it talked about the Guidon family helping to start a cheese factory. When we go to Costa Rica in April, we will be going to the cheese factory so I can do some research on it. I might compare the cheese factory to Stonyfield Yogurt but I’m not sure yet.

Last year we went to Stonyfield Yogurt as a school field trip. It was so fun and interesting. I loved it. We might go there again to refresh my memory and so I can learn even more about Stonyfield Yogurt. Ever since that field trip I asked my family to switch our yogurt to Stonyfield Yogurt and they did.

That is all I know so far about my research project. I am so excited that I will be able to use Stonyfield Yogurt as part of it. I am also excited to go to the cheese factory that we have been reading so much about. I can’t wait to find out what I am doing for my final research project.

My Walking with Wolf Review

This is a video of me giving a review of the the book Walking with Wolf. We read this book in our class for part of the curriculum.

The Art of the Chainsaw

What interests me outside of school is music and entertainment. In the book Walking with Wolf , Wolf states that "That was one I always liked: I enjoyed the art of working with a chainsaw. What with all its dangers and even with close calls I had, why, nonetheless, it's something that I got great satisfaction from. I loved to hear the trees come down." It is interesting to see how the Costa Ricans or "ticos" used to enjoy doing this as entertainment and how they still use it as entertainment.

At the Deerfield fair that happened this weekend in Deerfield, NH, they had chainsaw carvings which is a form of chainsaw art. It is an interesting thing to see how chainsaw art is still used as entertainment today and how chainsaw art is an entertaining thing to people throughout the world.

I am looking forward to begin reading chapter 6 from the book Walking with Wolf. I can't wait to find out what other events or things they do for entertainment in Costa Rica. It is interesting to see how they can take the smallest things and turn them into something fun and exciting, or what is known as being entertainment. I guess we will have to wait and see what goes on in the upcoming chapters to find out what other things they do for entertainment.
