Dr. Mau's seventh grade social studies classes have been researching a variety of countries in the library to become Asian travel experts.  The regions  they are covering include the Middle East and East, Southeast, and South Asia.  CultureGrams online database has been very useful in helping students to learn important foreign phrases and recipes for traditional foods in far-flung destinations such as Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Israel, and Pakistan.  Students are also busy creating colorful brochures of interesting tourist sites, maps, and timelines.
