For the last six weeks, Carl J. Lamb students have been learning folk dances from around the world. While learning the dances, they discussed the cultures and traditions that the dances come from. Each student drew a picture of a family tradition that they have, and the pictures were combined to make “tradition quilts” to display at the event. Families joined together for a celebration of learning on October 15th, dancing together to music from Russia, England, France and more. The folk dancing unit will conclude with each class applying their knowledge of folk dances to create their own.
