Far East Festival

There wasn't enough excitement packed into this week so we had to pack in just a little bit more - the Far East Festival!  Everyone put on their best duds for this banquet.  Here are all the first and second graders all dressed up and posing with the dragon.

Moments before the dragon's mouth was under thorough investigation.
The lovely ladies of Table 12.
Everybody practiced with their chopsticks.  Some were more successful than others.

There was dinner entertainment including a Korean song sung, a fairy tale acted out and we even had a dancing dragon and fireworks, if you can believe that.  There were shreaks and gasps for every firework at my table.  I'm pretty sure they had a good time and won't be forgetting it anytime soon!

  2. Well, we just finished our V-Day party so no more fun for awhile....fun can wear one out! :)

    It was funny. I was talking to one of the French teacher's who is from Niger and asking him how his son enjoyed the evening. He said he loved it because at his Nigerien school the teachers and students never did anything together. So it's neat that in simply hanging out together we can be distinctly different. :)

  3. I feel the sense of connection just in reading your blog. I'm sure I can gather some ideas for my Childcare center.
