Where are we now?

Dear Parents,
The children have been working very hard on their multicultural project. We have now visited several countries and continue to move foward with the poject. We have been to Morocco, India and Pakistan and will begin work on Bangladesh next week. The children have really taken their time learning about all of the facts for each country. I am very proud of them.
Thank you so much for responding to the letters about the multicultural luncheon. Another letter will be coming soon with more details. I am looking foward to a wonderful celebration with the students.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Phillips

Landscapes



The children had the opportunity to work with an art teacher earlier in the year. While she was with our class the children drew and painted landscapes that represented Mount Everest. We studied about Mount Everest when we researched Nepal. The children had so much fun and the results were beautiful. Take a look.

Puerto Rico Presentation - Diego's Mother and Father




Diego's parents came to our class and did a power point presentation on Puerto Rico. It was very interesting and the children learned many interesting facts about Puerto Rico. Here are some pictures from the visit.

Photos From Mrs. Alpizar's Visit




Larissa's mother came to visit our class to share the story of a trip the family took to Russia to bring Larissa home to the United States with them. The children really enjoyed her visit. Take a look at some photos from her time with us.
