Today I had the opportunity to address a group of students at Ruskin Elementary.
I explained to them the roles of different professions within the newspaper business and later did an exercise with them where six volunteers ‘role played’ as Editors, Reporters, Photographers, etc. They had to browse thru today’s Tampa Tribune and identify a sample of what their role in making the paper was. They were very inquisitive as to how the paper was produced, what each person did and even how much money each position made!
All in all I enjoyed very much talking to this group of third graders. I found them to be smart, well behaved and best of all respectful of our contribution.

1:45 p.m., Wimauma Elementary:
Anibal is a fifth-grader who’s 10 years old—but wise beyond her years. She’s acted as sidekick all day to Tampa Tribune reporter Karen Branch-Briosos as she spoke to several classes at Wimauma Elementary. And now, like everyone else at Wimauma Elementary, her school day duties are done.

Dieciséis estudiantes se juntaron para una presentación en español por una periodista del Tampa Tribune.
Son de tercero, cuarto y quinto grados, pero todos tienen en común una cosa: hablan dos idiomas, por lo menos. Algunos hablan hasta tres.
Esperanza, 10, es una de los estudiantes que hablan tres idiomas: ingles, español, y mixteco—el idioma del pueblo Mixteco en el estado Mexicano de Oaxaca. Algún día, le gustaría ser maestra de arte. Minerva, 8, también quiere ser maestra de arte. Y entre los estudiantes que les inspiran las artes es Araceli, 9, a ella le gustaría ser artista, porque “quiero dibujar y pintar.”
Hay tres estudiantes en este grupo que esperan dedicarse a la profesión medica: Alejandra, 8; Giselle, 8: y Karla, 8. Ashley 10, también quiere cuidar a la salud de los demás—pero, en su caso, sus pacientes serian animales. A ella le gustaría ser veterinaria.
A Saúl, 8, le gustaría ser un bombero.
Un día después de que llegara un policía de la ciudad de Tampa para hablar de su profesión, una cantidad de los estudiantes de Wimauma también les gustaría seguir sus pasos: Natali, 8, quiere ser detective de policía. Genaro, 11, y Leopoldo, 10, aspiran a la misma profesión.
Dice Leopoldo: “Para la gente que no sabe hablar español, yo podría traducir por los demás policías.”
