As the other students came into the kindergarten room they were greeted by room 105's kids in "traditional" dress. The girls wore dresses with puffed sleeves and the boys wore stiff, white shirts with detailed embroidery. The kids from 105 gave a few fun facts (did you know the Philippines is made up of over 7,100 islands?).
All the kindergartners demonstrated a Philippine dance called the ting-klee (I really have no idea what the dance is called. I asked Lorien five or six times and I swear she pronounced it differently every single time. It could be called the hokey-pokey for all I know!)
Lorien was in charge of teaching the student travelers about the coral reefs. I love seeing how much she has learned and hearing her share with other kids.
Next week the kindergarten kids will get to be the travelers, seeing the sights in Egypt, Peru and Morocco to name a few!

I remember doing the tinglei! also, the two sticks that I was jumping over! I was told that I was the best at it.
