Mrs. Turner’s kindergarten class at Warsaw Christian School studied Alaska and Hawaii as part of its ‘America the Beautiful’ unit. During this unit, the students learned patriotic songs each week. Mr. Buller, administrator and native of Alaska, told the class about some special features of Alaska including climate, animals that live there and the Iditarod race. The Barros family, with WCS kindergarten son Jackson, visited the class on Hawaii. Jake Barros was born and raised in Hawaii. He taught the students about Hawaiian traditions, including playing the ukulele, surfing, different animals, information about volcanoes, leis and fruits grown in Hawaii. Pictured (L to R) are Turner (background), Harper Wood, Autumn Yue, Kade Meyer and Jake Barros making leis on Hawaii Day. The students all made leis to celebrate Hawaii.
