For our Holiday Community Dinner, we are incorporating holidays around the world. Our student will interact with virtual penpals to share their traditions and food they normally would have around the holidays. Below is the link for more information.

Below is our map that we are going to incorporate into our project. This shows us where we are and were our partnering school is located within the US. This is significant because it shows that even though we are both apart of the US, we still in differ our traditions and holiday celebrations may be different. Arizona may not seem like that far away in the eyes of a student and so this will show them that it is a great distance away and it takes around 27-30 hours to get there. This map could also be a segue into talking about different cultures all around the world by showing students that even states can differ in culture imagine how different countries differ in culture when we compare them.
We are also going to present this map at our community dinner on a creative board to show how our students have collaborated with students that are in another part of the country.
