Finishing French Day

Today we continued our studies about France. We did stuff like writing what they ate or a fashion design. We also ate croissants. They were delicious! We also finished our Matisse and started our water color pictures of Monet. It's been a great day.

The Coldwater gifted group has continued to travel the world in 80 days and so far we have made it half way. We are in France and we are learning about French Explorers. The Statue of Liberty is a French gift to us. Frederic Bartholdi is the maker of the statue. We are continuing to work on our class made matisse. The United States of America has been greatly influenced by French culture. Bye have a good rest of the day by Joshua

Learning about France

Today was such a fun day with Mrs. Griffith!! We read The Hunchback and it is such a very good book. We researched about France. We also did a Matisse(something made from only paper and scissors) and it was very fun. I think everybody had fun doing that because it was fun doing art. We also had this map and we had to lacate the rivers and countries on there. We had a very fun day with Mrs. Griffith!!!!
