Elective News
In our Travel and Geography Elective we did an International Day. Students chose a country and did a report on it and brought in food from their country. Yum Yum We have had Sushi from Japan, Hone Bread from Rome, Italian cookies from Italy, Corn beef sandwiches from Ireland, Lemon cakes from Australia, and a Taco from Spain. The children also dressed in their countries native clothing. They did an awesome job!!! In the Creative writing Elective the students are busy writing stories from mysteries to fantasies. We will surely turn out a future writer from this elective.
