It was so wonderful to celebrate, learn and experience the different world cultures of the families in our school district at the PTA Cultural Arts Fair this past Wednesday.
Armenian Display
There were beautiful displays of artifacts, posters, maps, artwork and clothing from over 15 different countries.
Filipino Display
The music and dance performances by the students were truly remarkable!
Indian Bollywood Dance
Traditional Polish Dance
In addition to the global focus of learning and celebrating so many cultures from around the world,
I got to learn about Illinois history over the decades from our third grade students.
Each group wrote and performed a script highlighting important events from Illinois history.
Between each performance, they summarized and recorded notes on a timeline.
It was so great to see how the students were so actively teaching and learning from one another!
I was so impressed!
