March 12th Meeting
Dear Members,
It's that time of year again for our annual International Geography Night. We will host the event during the March meeting on Thursday, March 12th, 7 p.m. at Belleville First Assembly of God
This amazing event has been a group favorite for many years. For those of you that are new to SCCCHE, Geography Night is a fun family evening. We have been "around the world" with many families hosting a variety of countries and even states from our great land, the United States of America. If you are an SCCCHE veteran, then you know what a great time it is, and we look forward to seeing what countries we get to visit this year.
What we do is ask that you choose a country, study it and present it in a format that is most comfortable and enjoyable for your family to study and others to learn from. We have had many families that have lived abroad and bring back the costumes and cultures from other lands. You can give facts on the country, display pictures, wear costumes, and even offer food. Even if you haven't lived out of the USA, you can still study a country and have a great country presentation for all to visit.
Here's an example: our family has presented Mexico in the past. We studied facts about the Mexican culture, put these facts on a tri-fold for people to see, played Mariachi music, brought tortilla chips and salsa, and hung a pinata for the children to hit. Your study and imagination are the limit!
If you would like to coordinate this event, please contact Carrie asap! If you would simply like to sign up for a country, contact me and I will write your name down. When we get a coordinator, I will pass the info along.
This is also a great night to invite someone that is thinking about homeschooling, grandparents, pastors and others that can take a look at what home schoolers do in an fun and adventurous format.
We are looking forward to traveling the world with you!
Urban & Carrie
