"My favorite trip was when we went to Central Park because I like the marrionette show and the action scene in it. Also we played games." -Monica P.
Projects
Students made travel guides about China, country reports about Ghana, and posters and booklets in math. At the end of the year, students learned to make dioramas. Students were instructed to choose one of the countries we've studied this year (China, Ghana, Italy) and to make a diorama to show what they've learned. Check them out below!
