The school’s International Festival is coming up soon!  It will take place on February 6th and 7th.  Lower El will present on the 6th from 9:30 – 11:00 AM and Upper El will present on the 7th from 9:30 – 11:00 AM.

The International Festival is a way to explore other cultures from around the world and develop an awareness of our own place in the world.    Each student explores a continent or country and finds a creative way to share what they have learned with the rest of the school.  Most students make a display board, but they can also bring artifacts, clothing, music, and food from their continent or country.  Each student will have the opportunity to go from classroom to classroom and experience all of the cultures as they see the presentations prepared by their schoolmates.  Each student is expected to participate in the festival.

The students in our classroom will be given an opportunity to first present to our class prior to the festival. Below is the schedule

 I recommend that each student use a tri-fold board for the festival.  They balance better on the desk tops.
