Cultural Connections: Cultural Diversity Celebration
Our Cultural Celebration will take place on June 10th. We are excited to celebrate the many cultures represented in our school community together.
To help prepare for the event, we are asking each CREW class to create decorations for the gym. Decorations can include flags, cultural art, welcome signs in different languages, posters, or other creative ideas that celebrate diversity and inclusion.
CREW classes can work on creating decorations today and continue this week (reminder no WEB leaders this week)
CREW classes can continue to work on their decorations during down time for the next couple of weeks
Thank you for helping make this celebration welcoming and meaningful for everyone.

Thursdays are a great day for connecting with your class. Below are options you can use to engage in building those connections.
Funny Fill Ins - Use this to create funny stories that students build
Countdown
Letters - Choose letters and build as many words as possible (in 30 seconds -- or extend the time and see how many you can find individually or as a group)
Numbers - Choose small/large numbers and then a target number is given. Use the numbers and operations in any combination to find the target number or get closest to the target number in 30 seconds -- or extend the time and see who can get the target number)
Spot the Difference - trying to spot the differences between 2 photos
Memory Games - Change the size/theme of the game. Create 2/3/4 teams and try to be the group with the best memory
Cards and Board games are always a great way to have students connect without phones.
Introduce different card games each week and create some challenges, competition, and fun on Thursdays! If you need more decks of cards, please let me know, I have a lot to share. (Suggestion: number each deck of cards so when you find a lone ace of hearts on the floor you know which deck of cards it matches with...)
Game suggestions: Go fish, Cheat, Crazy Eights, Slap Jack, Speed, Kings in the Corner, Crib...
