Today was the day the kids got to share their Heritage Projects. I helped Lon learn a little about his Polish heritage. We just focused on one part of the family, he will learn all about it as time goes on.
Lon sharing part of his heritage. Reading his poem, he is Polish, Russian and Lithuanian, he is related to veterans, and he is cheese pizza.
He showed the class his father's Polish flag and he showed his great great grandmother Victoria's babushka that she wore when she came to this country in 1905. It is no longer very black, but it is in wonderful shape. We keep it in the cedar chest. Great Grandmother Victoria would have been 123 today!
Showing on the map what counties he is from. He was only allowed to pick 4. He has more than that, because he is American!
Passing out treats. I made Kolachke for the treat. Some kids liked them, some did not. They are not very sweet.
Cookies! Lon is not a huge fan either.
Then it was time for recess. I helped clean up a bit and took the flag and babushka home with me. The babushka is back in the cedar chest. As soon as school is over for the day, (and Lon learns about the other kid's heritages) it is Christmas Break!
