Cultural Artifacts can be Delicious...

Over the past two weeks, the students of 6B have been bringing in objects to represent their cultural heritage.  When one student requested to bring in traditional food, I said yes, not knowing that I was opening the door to a cultural picnic.  Over the next several days, the students enjoyed a variety of delicious artifacts inluding kimchi, chocolate, apple pie, shrimp crackers, and delicious pastries and cookies.

The class of course enjoyed the snacks, but also showed a keen interest in all of the artifacts brought in.  They took turns trying on wooden clogs, browsing through picture books of England and Scotland, and experimenting with chopsticks.  It was a highlight of the day, as the students were eager to learn from their classmates.  Thanks to all the parents for helping the students find an artifact to bring in.  The variety and planning was wonderful, and helped make these presentations a great success!

Also, remember that there is no school on Thursday, Friday, and Monday.  I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend as you spend time with family and friends.  We have so much to be thankful for!
