Week in Review
We have had so much fun learning about traditions all over the world! We started our week with a discussion of the traditions that many people in the US participate in around the holidays.

We also followed up each country's research with a fun read aloud and activity!

After researching each country, we used our new knowledge to help write an opinion piece of whether we would (or would not) like to celebrate the holidays using these traditions.

We also researched England and read:

We researched Mexico and read:

The kids had fun creating their own poinsettia art!

By the end of the week, they were doing their own research and designing their own posters to match our learning!

We read about a fun character in Sweden called The Tomten!

In math, we started a fun unit on nonstandard measurement!

Have a great week!
