8th Grade Advisory to Write Holiday Cards

Hello Parents:

The 8B advisory class will be writing and hand-making holiday cards next week. We are participating in a card exchange with 25 schools from around the world. Our cards will be going to: Italy, Slovenia Poland, Spain, Russia, Slovakia, Lithuania, Greece, and many more.  Students will have the opportunity to share their holiday customs with others and also have the chance to be creative in their card design. Students will be writing their holiday letters Friday, November 30th. Cards will be created Friday, December 7th. We should be receiving cards from participating schools as well.


Please see the information below:

Task: From November 21, 2018 to December 24, 2018 students will make Christmas cards (DIY). Every school will send one card to one school. If teachers want to make more cards,they have to send them in one letter. Children should write wishes in English and short information about Christmas in their countries.
Don't forget to write Merry Christmas in your native languages, If you don't celebrate Christmas you can present winter symbols and write  a short note about another holiday.
We will be posting pictures of the cards that we receive on this Blog. If you have any questions, or would like to donate materials for the card making, please feel free to contact me at creyes@braination.net

Thanks!
