Exchange event
Shared reading session with 9 exchange students from Shandong and one Prep class. Chinese students recited a traditional Asian folktale in Mandarin and English that our students studied. They sung a traditional song. Parents made and brought food. Called it "Yum Cha Storytime". Our preps and exchange students rotated around picnic rugs and student stories were read from IPads.
