For our visitors from around the world:
Thank you for looking at our blog(s). We are a seventh grade class in North Carolina in the U.S. Please leave a comment as to where you are from. Those dots on our cluster map are fun to see, but we’d like to know what city you live in. And if by any chance you are yourself a teacher or a student who would like to start a class-to-class relationship via emails/blogs, I would LOVE to know more! My school email is vpaisie@wcpss.net
We DID have a comment from a teacher in Tasmania (an island off the coast of Australia). But I accidentally deleted it and can’t get it back. RATS! ~~Mrs. P
Hahahahahaha
How did the teacher from Tasmaina knew our password and all that stuff???!!!
[...] tried and tried to express appreciations on Paisie’ Perusals (For our visitors), but blog security and comment screening have frustrated my endeavours. Thanks, anyway, Paisie, [...]
Hello! I am a fourth grade teacher in Iowa and have just begun a blog with my class. I was so glad to find your table of which themes allow posts on pages. Thank you- I know my students will be excited when I show them tomorrow as we are wanting to create pages for our various projects and subjects. Thanks again!

Well at least you registered. Most people in the class would be so pleased to delete their own blogs and get as far away from blogging as possible. Ms. Paisie would love for you to create a blog, I’m sure.
(even though the picture shows Mrs. Paisie ‘wrote’ this, I cut and pasted this from my friend.:
Hi, I am Ms. Paisie’s friend, Rachel. I live in Oklahoma, but I am currently half way through a trip to Norway. We are on a ship called the Regent Seven Seas Voyager. We started in Copenhagen Denmark and have sailed all the way above the Arctic circle to a place called Nordcapp, which is supposed to be the northernmost spot of land in Europe. But the guys who said that calculated a little wrong, so it is almost but not quite the northernmost spot. It is only a few feet off, and the real spot is a few miles away. It was very cold and windy in Nordcapp, even in July. The highest temperature ever in history there was something like 60. We wore lots of clothing.
Yesterday we went to Tromso, the northernmost city in Norway. We went to a museum about the Norwegian polar explorers. They were very tough guys.
Today we are headed south. We will be in Norway 5 more days then we will arrive back in Copenhagen and come home.
Did you know the reason so many houses are painted red in Norway? In the olden days, red paint was cheap because it was made locally, whereas white paint had to be imported from Germany. So if you wanted everyone to think you were rich, but you really weren’t, you would paint the front of the house white and the sides red.
