Literacy Program Visits Chinatown

Students from our Middle School After School Literacy Program spent weeks reading about food and cultures from around the world. Last week, they took a field trip to Chinatown to experience some of the things they had read about for themselves. Students explored the neighborhood, stood in awe of the paper lanterns that they had previously learned how to make, and tried lots of new foods like soup dumplings and spring rolls. Everyone said the soup dumplings were their favorite and they were so happy they got to go on this trip.
