John Lewis Childs School’s hallways and classrooms were transformed to represent different continents and countries for the schoolwide event, “It’s a Small World.”
Regions were assigned by grade-level, with Pre-K representing North America, kindergarten representing South America, first and second grade representing Africa, third and fourth grade representing Asia, and fifth and sixth grade representing Europe. Each classroom was also given a specific country in their respective region.
The activity was a collaborative effort, as PTA members decorated the hallways to coincide with the continents, while teachers and students collaborated to decorate classroom doors and inside the room, as well as the bulletin boards in the halls.
From March 17-18, students walked around the building with replica passports and received a sticker for visiting each country. Each class shared facts about their given country, including music, language and food, with their visiting peers.
