The First Graders’ exploration of countries around the world came to a close last week with the production “It’s a Small World After All”.  The students in both First Grade classes performed the musical, written by First Grade teacher (and Primary Day alum), Ms. Claire Brown.

The musical follows students in a class who travel to Africa, Australia, Canada, China, Jamaica and Spain.  Through their travels they learn about various customs and traditions specific to each country and that children all over the world share more likenesses than differences.  Following the production the children enjoyed an international feast, prepared by parents, featuring the cuisine of the countries studied.
