Web of Culture

Over the past few weeks the students have been busy sharing about their own heritage and discussing a variety of traditions that have come from other cultures. It's been so interesting to discover what life is like for individuals who immigrate to another country. One of the projects that the students have completed has been a poem about their own heritage. Here are a few for you to enjoy!
