Country Projects

This past month 3 very hard working students decided they wanted to learn about the countries their ancestors came from.  Here are their projects.


This is my China project! It was very difficult to do! I wanted to learn more about China so I decided to do my very own project.  I  have learn so much about China stuff that I already know and don't know!!!!


 
This is the food I brought. They are dumplings that me and my mom made together! I made fifty-two dumplings with my mom!! When I finish I was proud of myself!!!!!



This is my Scotland project. I chose Scotland because I wanted to learn more about my culture.

I made shortbread to go with my project. It is a very special food in Scotland. I was so proud of myself when I finished.



I chose Norway because I think it's a very fascinating country and      
I wanted to learn more about where my ancestors came from.  

This is me making strawberry cake rolls (a Norwegian treat).

BLG reader came

Today Sienne  brought  a book called Freddie & Gingersnap.
It was about how a dinosaur taught a dragon how to fly. This is about Freddie & Gingersnap helping each other learn new things.

This is our favourite part of the story because they are facing eye to eye and they look a little funny.
