Coming to America from El Salvador

As part of the fourth grade Social Studies curriculum, students have been learning about immigration. Today, Kylie's grandmother visited our classroom and talked to the students about her experience immigrating from El Salvador.  Students learned that El Salvador is a tiny country in Central America; it is even smaller than Rhode Island!  Students also learned that El Salvador is known for its volcanoes, coffee, and artists.  Students were a bit envious when they learned that in El Salvador children get a two hour break from school every day from noon to 2pm.  

Thank you Mrs. Connelly for sharing your immigration story with us!
