 Today I spent some time with a boy of Caacupe who has impressed me and the
 educators very much with his original creations in Scratch. Scratch is not
 a school subject, these kids are learning it on their own.
 
  * **What's your name?**
- * Benedicto
+ * B: Benedicto

+ * A: Alberto
 
  * **How old are you?**
- * 12
+ * B: 12
+ * N: 11
+ * A: 9
 
  * **How did you learn Scratch?**
- * We tried all the functions. First, we'll try one function, and see what it does.
+ * B: We tried all the functions. First, we'll try one function, and see what it does.
+ * N: Like he said, we experimented with all the functions and check the results.
+ * A: By looking at the animations of the games bundled with Scratch
 
  * **What job would you like to do when you're done with school?**
- * Software engineer
+ * B: Software engineer
+ * N: Paediatrician
+ * A: Nada... ;-)
 
- * **Ah, like me! Do you like Turtle Art? What can you do with it?**
- * Si. I can create rectangles and other geometrical shapes.
+ * **Do you like Turtle Art? What can you do with it?**
+ * B: Si. I can create rectangles and other geometrical shapes.
+ * N: Mostly geometric shapes 
+ * A: Only basic shapes: square, triangle...
 
  * **How much time do you spend with your laptop every day?**
- * A few hours.
+ * B: A few hours.
+ * N: 6 hours, more or less.
+ * A: Same for me.
+ * (Mother's note: they don't use the laptop enough in school!)
 
  * **Nobody is teaching you, yeah? You're learning everything on your own?**
- * No, with my sister. We try all activities, and when we find one we like, we spend some time on it together.
+ * B: No, with my sister. We try all activities, and when we find one we like, we spend some time on it together.
+ * N: I learned the basics of Turtle Art at the trainer's course.
+ * A: Yes, I learned it there too.
 
  * **What other activities do you like besides Scatch and Turtle Art?**
- * //Ablar con Sara// [Speak] and //Super Vampire Ninja Zero//, //Máquina de discos// (Jukebox).
+ * B: //Ablar con Sara// [Speak] and //Super Vampire Ninja Zero//, //Máquina de discos// (Jukebox).
+ * N: //eToys//, to edit photos. I need someone to teach me all the rest.

+ * B: The "Snake" game
+ * N: Strategic games

+ * Mom: They need an automatic spell checker
+
+ * **What's the most annoying problem for you with Sugar?**
+ * B: Can't use the "robot" function in //Ablar con Sara// (
+ * N: I want bigger fonts in //Pintar// (Paint).
+ * A: //Escribir// (Write ;-)
 
  * **Would you like to learn a little bit of Python with Pippy?**
- * Very well!
+ * B: Very well!
 
 Then we got started. Python is easy, you can explain the basics to a smart kid in less than 30 minutes.
 We also updated Benedicto's laptop to [[http://oficina.paraguayeduca.org/~bernie/py-xo1/ | build 65]],
