Hi all, welcome to room 13's learning log. This site has been established to provide a log of the learning experiences that occur in the classroom and as another communication tool between home and school.
This week the students of Room 13 have been exploring celebrations from across the globethat they have never heard about or might not know much about.Ramadan, Chinese New Year,Rio Carnival, Holi, La Tomatina, The Obon Lantern Festival, Dia de los Muertos, Diwali and the Carnival of Venice are all important celebrations for those who participate in them. The students had to research
What they are?
What happens during the celebration?
Who participates?
When does it occur?
Where does it happen?
Why do they celebrate it?
The students then had to present their information in the style of a news report or documentary. These are the finished ones so far...Enjoy!
