Immigrant Art
I asked each child to create a piece of art work that reflects their culture. They may use collage, drawing or painting, weaving, pottery or clay—whatever medium they choose. They need to write a short paragraph with their piece to explain what they did and why.
Parents may help with ideas or teach techniques, if they desire, but the actual piece of art should be the child’s own work. Please bring the finished pieces to school on Friday, October 11, for us to see on our first Decade Day.
With your permission, I would like to take pictures of the art to post on our web site.

Interview
I also asked students to interview someone who is older than them--their parents' age or older. It can be a family member or a family friend. The questions have to do with how things have changed over that person's lifetime.
The final draft, typed questions and answers (or a sets of paragraphs) is due Monday, October 14.
