Week 9 - Oct.17-21

This week was filled with many exciting events and learning tasks.  We worked on our blogs, set up our email accounts, improved our quick math speed time, presented our cultural projects, attended UN day, learned about other cultures, found connections between us and others, and enjoyed our Autumn Break potluck. 
 
Many thanks to all the parents for your support and all that you did to make UN day and our potluck an amazing success!  UN day was absolutely stunning!  Also a huge thank you to those that chaperoned students around UN day, assisted with the potluck, and presented to the class.  

​We learned a lot about the many forms of culture that we are a part of each day in our families, class, school, city, friend circles, and our home country/countries. 

Thank you to the parents who came to teach us more about the Vikings, the Mayans, the founding fathers, and Israel!  

We also talked about what it means to be Third Culture Kids.  Check out Mrs. Munnerlyn’s book! 

​As an extension of the Viking presentation, students are encouraged to check out the voyage of a modern-day Viking ship and its crew: http://www.drakenexpeditionamerica.com/news/
