Our elementary students had a wonderful opportunity today to connect with a classroom in the Philippines! 🌎📚 Our students gave a presentation and shared about life and learning at our school. They also enjoyed listening as students from the Philippines shared about their education and daily school experiences.
Because of the time difference, the students in the Philippines joined their school at 6:00 a.m., which was 4:00 p.m. for us. ⏰ We truly appreciate their effort to connect with us and make this learning experience possible!
We are especially thankful for the international cultural experiences that Ms. Mary has brought to our elementary students. 🌍✨ Opportunities like this help broaden perspectives and build connections beyond our community. 🤝📖
