Cultural Day

The Thursday before Spring Break was Cultural Day. The day was full of different activities, games, crafts, and dancing to expose the kids to different countries around the world and how they might live a little differently than we do. We started the day with Mass. At Mass, we had a procession of different saints from different countries around the world. After Mass, we watched a storyteller tell a story about Christopher Columbus. Then we went to lunch where we got to try food from all different countries. After lunch, we went to the gym to play some different games from around the world. After the games, we came back to the room for some craft time. Next, we learned some different dances from three different countries. Lastly, we saw an African drum performance. The day was very busy, but the kids had a great time. Here are some pictures from the day.
