Cultural Event Note Coming Home Today

May 19, 2019

Dear Parents,

      Our annual Cultural Event is fast approaching.  This year it will be on Friday, June 7 at 1:00.   Our play will be held in the gym here at Howe.  Mrs Jinn, Mrs. Polster, Mrs. Keebler and Ms. Truxall’s classes will be performing Africa .  Our class has begun studying Eastern African Nations with handwriting, coloring pictures, researching, poster making and other activities.  Attached, are your child’s lines that need to be memorized for Cultural Event. Our class will be singing songs that they have been practicing during Music class.  Costumes may be worn. Traditional dress for this region of Africa is typically brightly colored cloth that wraps around. See the following website for ideas- www.jenmansafaris.com/what-people-wear-in-different-african-countries.  Please keep costumes simple and not complicated.  All students are to memorize the passage and be able to read it slowly and clearly by June 7.  This is a very busy and exciting time for the children.  The Cultural Event will be memorable!

      If your son/daughter will not be participating, please inform me as soon as possible.

                                  Thanks, Ms. Truxall
