Legends, tall tales, cont.

Students just finished discussing creation myths from Alaska, Washington state, and Africa. Today we began American legends.

Upcoming events:

Friday - Tuesday - legends and tall-tales
Wednesday, Feb. 2, Spelling quiz #5
Wed - Friday - cultural presentations by students

Please check with your student to see what they have decided to do for their presentation on cultural events in their family. These are the options the students can pick from to present:
a. stories from different countries
b. clothing - specific items such as a kimono, lei, sombrero
c. receipes
d. trinkets or artifacts from different countries
e. family traditions
f. food - food may come only if it is not an expense to the family or has to be heated. Have your student explain - there must be a sample for everyone in the class


Contact me at the school or through email if you have questions.
