Wow! We just had the most fantastic day! Three children from South Africa came to visit our classroom. Actually, there were a whole group of children that came and spent the day with others at our school. The three children in our room seemed to fit in perfectly! Everyone in our class welcomed them with open arms.
We learned a lot about South Africa and realized that we have many similarities and differences in our countries. The children were very interested in the sports that are commonly played in South Africa such as cricket and squash.
When our visitors left, we reflected on our day. Here are a few comments from the children:
“They were helpful.”
“They were good.”
“They had a good time.”
“We had a GREAT time.”
“They were lots of fun!”
“They were very kind!”
“They were nice!”
“They weren’t shy.”
“They were responsible!”
What a great way to learn about other's cultures! Why don't we all pack up and go travel!!!
