This term we have been learning about culture, and how we all have one. We looked for clues of our ancestry in our family names and created puzzle pieces to depict cultural heritage. Then we read drew inspiration from the poem "Where I am from" by George Ella Lyon, and created our own poems about the cultures of our homes.

Here are some of the pieces we created:
