Third Grade Cultural Event

During the month of May, Elizabeth's class learned about different cultures, discussing different languages, clothes and food.  Each student was tasked with doing a project - writing a report/poster, bringing in something from a country, or making a treat from a country - that represented the country or countries that their family was from.  Elizabeth made a poster about Canada, Ireland and Poland, encompassing her complete heritage and researching the information herself.  Then she asked me to make Irish Soda Bread, which I confess I never made in my life.  We did a trial run and decided that it was yummy, so I made another loaf for her class.  Apparently, both her poster and the bread were a huge hit!

Researching. 

Her poster. 

Irish Soda Bread, which I had to make fresh the morning that her project was due (and deliver to school) because "it tastes soooo good warm, with butter."
