International Day

Grady and Anson recently had International Day at their school.  It is a super fun celebration, and I was really looking forward to it!  The kids all get dressed up in International costumes.  After being told that he could not dress as Spider-man, Anson said he wanted to be from England...

Grady decided to be a Gladiator

We also made international food.  G had to do it as homework and chose Afghanistan.  We made a sweet bread and a cucumber/tomato salad.  I chose to make scones for Anson, to stay on theme :)

The classes also performed so G's.  Here is A's class, doing a Spanish song.  He did great - smiling, singing and doing motions!  He is front and center.

Here is the video:

Then Grady's group came up on stage - see him walking out with his guitar?

G's class did a Spanish song and then did "Country Roads", which he played on guitar.

This is the Spanish song

Afterwards there were some fun activities.  We also got to lay their personalized stones in the school labyrinth.  See them in the middle there?

Anson got to play with his best bud, Frankie, too!

After all the fun, we also got to enjoy all the yummy food everyone brought.  It was such a great day!
