International Day

October 24 is International Day, which was started by the United Nations. Each class has to do a dance, skit, or song, there are local dancers, everyone brings a dish to share, and then we all return to our classrooms to show off our displays. Instead of picking a particular country my class explained some of the functions of the UN with posters and then said a sentence or two about it in English and in French. Then we got the whole school rocking by singing the funky version of "Stand By Me". It was fun. The kids on the bleachers--the front row are my students. The two men are Genesis and Hadison in traditonal dress--teacher's aides and so much more! The choir is singing the South African National Anthem--beautiful.
