Dear Friends,
We are third graders at NRES in Fort Worth. Here are some interesting facts about Texas. Dr. Pepper was created in 1885 and the recipe is kept secret in a vault. The largest bat population lives under a bridge in Austin. Dollar bills are printed all day at the Mint. We have been learning about time for kids. We have been learning also about countries, continents and oceans.
