Hispanic Day Celebration at CSS Charlton Street School hosted their 7th annual Hispanic Day Celebration on October 14, 2011. Authentic Hispanic food was donated by the staff and parents. Everyone feasted, talked, and watched the student presentations. ELL families and staff enjoyed the festivities prepared by Mrs. Bilis’ 2nd and 3rd grade SEI ELL and 3rd grade ESL students. They proudly displayed their autobiographies of their Hispanic countries. Students danced and played musical instruments to Spanish songs on power points demonstrating their knowledge about their countries. Students also learned about cities in the United States whose origins are Hispanic. Students enjoyed identifying these cities and researching their origins. The celebration was a great learning activity for students and their families! Visit Mrs. Bilis' website for more pictures and information.
