To celebrate the upcoming winter holidays, the third grade students participated in an event called "Holidays Around the World." Each third grade class "traveled" around the world (i.e. to the different third grade classes) to see how different countries celebrate the holidays. Check out the pictures below to see just what the students learned about...
The first stop was Mexico in Ms. Van Sickle's room. The students learned how Mexicans celebrate Christmas and then were able to sing "Feliz Navidad" and drink some Mexican hot chocolate (hot chocolate with cinnamon).
YUM! The cups are empty so it must have been good!
Singing "Feliz Navidad."
The next stop was Japan in Mrs. Rison's room. The students learned about Boy's and Girl's Day, which is a holiday in Japan. Here the students are making Japanese kites.
The next stop was Germany in Mrs. Verras' room. Here the students learned about a German Christmas and got to make Christmas trees out of paper plates.
The final stop was Israel in Mrs. Gervais' room. The students learned about Hanukkah and got to play the dreidel game. They were so busy playing the game, they didn't get the chance to take pictures!
