Maple Grove Mennonite Academy's second annual Cultural Dinner and History Fair was held last weekend. Our theme was Korea as we had been studying Korea, creating Korean art, learning Korean games, and making pottery that is currently being fired. Hopefully we'll have some pictures of that soon.
The students made these wind sock fish, the Korean flag, and the koi below for decorations. They also made paper fans and the folded paper pieces for the ddakji game.
The moms prepared a fabulous, authentic Korean meal and the students served their
parents and invited guests.
The adults seemed to enjoy the Korean games of kongki noli and ddakji more than the students did, and only a few rocks ended up in our bowls of sauce instead of on the backs of our hands where they were supposed to land.
The younger students researched a country and made a presentation poster on it while the older students chose a world history event for their topics.
