After my last show with the 5th and 6th graders (who all made wonderful animal sounds for my song) I met a student named Allie, who could make the sound of a dolphin. I&#8217;ve met kids who could do the squeaky Flipper voice but Allie could do the clicks perfectly. It was crazy-weird but quite amazing. I heard later that she wants to be a marine biologist. Sounds about right. She already speaks the language. Go for it, Allie!<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/a\/jeffcoschools.us\/mtcarbon-es\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/michaelanthonysteele.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCN4330.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN4330\" width=\"500\" height=\"330\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/michaelanthonysteele.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCN4330.jpg 500w, https:\/\/michaelanthonysteele.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/DSCN4330-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nA ginormous thanks to Mrs. Simpson for inviting me out and helping get the word out to all the other schools I&#8217;m visiting these two weeks.
