During International Week from November 15-18, students will celebrate and share their cultures. Students are asked to prepare a presentation sharing a festival, their country's flag, numbers and greetings in another language, facts about their country including geography and tourist attractions, and are encouraged to bring an object or book from their native country. Presentations can be in the form of posters, PowerPoints, brochures or books to educate classmates about different cultures and countries.
