Fourth
graders in Mrs. Hurlbutt’s class had an opportunity to research
and celebrate one of Louisiana’s most famous holidays…
Mardi Gras.
Thanks
to Miss Morrow, we shared 4 different books about Mardi Gras; two
storybooks and two non-fiction books with awesome pictures.
With Mrs. Vega’s help we were able to tie in our study of
the French language and the history of Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras.

Mrs. LaRocca, our FABULOUS room mother, who is familiar with the holiday,
came in to our classroom with a KING CAKE and a craft in hand. |

We had a wonderful time creating a Mardi Gras
keepsake to share with our families.

We
also enjoyed listening to the Cajun music that
Mr. Poirier and Ms. Simpson provided for us.
Learning about Mardi Gras was a great way to integrate social studies,
French, art, music,
library, and fun! |
