For The Students





Dear students,



I hope your school year is going well. I will soon be leaving New Mexico, and traveling in Texas for almost a month. So, maybe you can answer some questions about Texas (and 1 about New Mexico):






What is the state bird of New Mexico?

Texas is the largest state in area (continental US), but doesn't have the most people. What state has the most people?(Hint: it's one of the states on my walk.)

What colors are on the Texas state flag?

What is the capitol of Texas?

What is the state flower of Texas?

What is the state small mammal?

Two presidents were born in Texas......name one of them?

There is a famous fort in San Antonio....what is the name of the fort? (Hint: Davy Crockett was there.)

What large body of water borders Texas?

What foreign country borders Texas?

There are 2 NFL teams in Texas.......what are the name of the teams?

  5. Hey Corey,
    no snakes recently, and it's getting cold so I hope they are gone for the winter. I hope your school year is going well and you are getting excited about Christmas.

  6. Dear Jeff,
    Sorry we haven't blogged lately, but we have been very busy at school learning math, reading, science, etc.

    We just read the newspaper article about you from Sunday and are really excited to hear that you might walk through Gastonia. That would be wonderful.

    We are a little late, but would like to respond to your questions from October.
    1. The roadrunner is the state bird of New Mexico. Have you seen many?

    2.The colors of Texas' flag are red, white, and bule with a white star.

    3. The Texas state flower is the Bluebonnet.

    4. The Dallas Cowboys and The Houston Texans are the two NFL teams that play for Texas.

    5. We researched the state mammal and found two answers. They were the longhorn and the Mexican Freetailed Bat.

    How does it feel to be half way through your journey? Are you going to celebrate Thanksgiving this year? How?

    By the way, we loved seeing our school name in the newspaper article about you. Thank you!

    We wish you well.
