Developing International mindedness

To encourage our children to develop International mindedness we are currently working on an international project with a school in New Jersey, USA. We are in touch with two 2nd Grade classes from Elisabeth Morrow School. Children from 2nd Guzmán and 2nd Mena, from El Salvador, have written friendly letters to children at Elisabeth Morrow School, telling about the differences in school activities, weather, food, etc. between El Salvador and New Jersey. At the same time realising that most of them like the same things and enjoy doing the same activities! We received, via international mail, a box with their mascot, Red, White and Blue Teddy Bear and yesterday, we shipped our school's mascot, Rocky to them!
