This week we traveled to Kenya, Africa. Tuesday and Wednesday we:
* made a Kenyan flag
* created a mural in the hall of animals we 'd see on an African safari
* made jewelry, stringing necklaces and bracelets of beads and bells.
* played Mancala, an ancient African game once played by scooping 12 holes in the sand or dirt, then dropping pebbles into each hole, saving some for your own well.
*learned some words in the language of Keswahili, one of the two formal languages spoken in Kenya. There are also over 100 tribes which also communicate in a variety of languages and dialects.
After the frenzy and excitement making animals, birds and flags of Kenya, Wednesday was a relaxing day to talk, visit, learn and be mellow.Thank you Mr. Larkowski and Mrs. Mainville for volunteering to help with these experiences.
