SPECIAL SCHOOL ACTIVITIES
Here are some projects we are working
on:
Our school, P.S. 221, The Toussaint
L’Ouverture School, has an
International Day Festival at the end
of each school year that we all look
forward to. Every class chooses a
different country, to help celebrate the
many nations and cultures of our world.
We research and learn about the country
our class picked. Then we do art
projects, cooking projects and writing
projects about what we learned. We make
costumes and dress up. Our classes
prepare performances of acting, song,
dance, poetry and music to perform for
the school and visitors. We have a
parade around the community. Finally, we
dance and perform in the street in front
of our school. Last year we had a steel
band too! Everybody is welcome to visit
and party with us. Call our school in
May if you want to come.
