Last week read Hongkham's Story from the country of Laos. The children are absolutely enthralled in these stories. They are so excited to bring their money and put it in the rice bowl! They have been so happy and proud to bring the floss and toothpaste.
Thank you to the seventh grade students that came into our classroom to gather our tooth paste and thank the children for their efforts in Almsgiving!
This week we'll read Odette's Story from the country of Rwanda. this week we are collecting toothbrushes!
Last week we made a cell out of jello, apricots, and chopped dates. The cytoplasm was jello that is contained by the cell membrane which was the saran wrap. A dried apricot played the part of the nucleus (the brains of the cell) and the vacuoles were made of chopped dates (the storage tanks of the cell). When all said and done were eaten by the children.
