Culture Day
As part of their Who We Are unit, grade 4 students are learning about global citizenship and how to respect others despite the differences. While investigating their second line of inquiry students learned about cultures and different countries. They inquired into different languages, religions, holidays, traditions and food. For their formative assessment project students were asked to share their culture with the class. Students prepared presentations about food, holidays and famous people from their countries; they brought videos about traditional songs and dances and learned more about each other. Students not only had fun but once more understood that their differences make them unique and that being respectful is the main trait of a true IB leaner.
