Brazil

We had a wonderful time studying Brazil. Since it was time for Carnival in Brazil, we decided to have a little celebration of our own. The kids made masks with all kinds of mixed media. They had a wonderful time. Some parents decorated the hall. One mother brought necklaces for everyone to wear. Some of the kids even dressed up for the occasion. It was all very festive.

The kids shared some super presentations on everything from an overview of Brazil to the animals of Brazil. The kids are steadily improving in their public speaking skills. It is great to see.

We had a lovely meal. One family brought a Kings Cake. It was so much fun to see who got the baby.

One of the students led us through a lovely line dance from Brazil.

I am not sure the video is working ~ let me know in the comments if you can see it.

We wrapped up the day with a memorable interview via Skype with a man who grew up in Brazil. He was really wonderful, and we loved talking to him.
