Nepal And Future Events

Dear parents,
I am happy to say that the children are having a wonderful time learning about Nepal. Their favorite part has ben learning about Mount Everest. the children seem to be intrigued by the mystery of it.
on Wednesdays our class has an artist coming for 6 weeks and she has been working with the students to help them paint landscapes related to Mount Everest. Next week I will take come photos of the children painting and post them on the site. Wait until you see the beautiful work that is being done.
FYI - as a culminating activity to this project I am planning a multicultural lunch for the children in June. Parent volunteers will be needed to help set up, clean up and decorate. All students will be required to have a grownup make a traditional dish from their country. i migh even ask for 2 dishes per child. as soon as the date has been set a note will be sent home with all of the details. Please note that each child will be allowed to bring one guest with them to the luncheon. I kn ow it will be a great time for everyone.
Mrs. Phillips
