I composed a letter and sent it home to families of K-5 students to find out where their ancestors came from. There were positive responses from many families. We were able to start the project by looking up the flags of the countries of origin. The items I have chosen to be sponsored will be used to color, cut, paste and work on many projects other than the one we have started. Learning is ongoing! We will display the giant world map on the K-5 wing of our school with the flags of the countries that our ancestors came from. The students are excited to learn more about where their ancestors came from. They have done research about the foods and customs of the various countries. We have read several books about family diversity and how it affects how we live our lives. We have also read books about the different foods of some of the countries and talked about foods we have eaten from other cultures. We hope to have our display up for the remainder of the school year.
