Guest Speaker: Mr. Sievert!

We were so honored to have Mr. Sievert come in to talk to our class about his trip to China with his wife, Mrs. Sievert. Since we have been celebrating the Chinese New Year this month for Reading Month, it was a perfect way to wrap up everything we had done and learn. 

The kids loved hearing the stories Mr. Sievert had to tell as well as seeing pictures and watching videos of their trip to China.

Here Mr. Sievert is telling the kids his name in Chinese:

He also showed us some REAL newspapers and REAL money from his time in China.

Mr. Sievert showed us a map of where they had traveled and he showed us a video of The Great Wall of China so we could see what it really looked like!

We were so thankful Mr. Sievert could share his real experience with us to help us make connections to everything we have been learning this past month! Thank you Mr. Sievert!!! You were a hit!
