This morning we had the most fun learning about the Chinese educational system through Mr. Hartley. We wanted to share some videos that he sent us today. Also, we gathered in the media center this morning to skype with Mrs. Hartley from Chinawith (China). It was such a great opportunity for us, and we learned so much about their schools and about his favorite meal thus far in China. Ask your child to share with you the details.
