This week, Kindergarten and First Grade students flew away from South America and headed to a new continent: Europe!
Our first stop: ITALY.
Who better to make us appreciate the lovely Italian folklore than Strega Nona and her sidekicks, Big Anthony and Bambolona? Since Tomie DePaola’s characters are so well-known, we looked at a variety of their stories and voted on which one to share as a group.
Then we got to take a quick video detour to the wonderful city of Venice to see how glass sculpture is made. Check it out for yourself by clicking on the picture below:
And the Amharic Word of the Week is: Bye! (pronounced “chow”)
