It is our Colombian Exchange Day! To all who could, thank you for supplying either an old world or new world food item! Here are a few pictures from the morning -- students in each home room created a craft to trade with the other home room. The drop-cloth turned into an unplanned piece of art for our walls.

Mr. Gleim's class is painting rocks to trade with the New World. |

Mr. Murphy's class is making beaded bracelets to trade with settlers from the Old World. |
This afternoon we shared a movie, a meal, and some inspiring quotes like this one from President Dwight D. Eisenhower: "This world of ours...must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate, and be, instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect."
