A group of nine students from the coastal region of Ecuador visited Riverstone last week; specifically the Preschool, Elementary, Middle, and High School Spanish classes. Prior to their visit to our school, the group spent three weeks in the United States, learning more about our government, school system, and culture through a variety of school visits in the Treasure Valley. They taught us about Ecuadorian traditions, stories, and their lives. Later in the day, the students were featured at an all-school assembly.
The photos show our Grade 6 students with our visitors drawing Venn diagrams of family structures and hobbies, Grade 7 students watching a skit of typical day in the life of a student, our Grade 8 students teaching the visitors about famous dancers and singers throughout American history, Grade 9 students learning an Ecuadorian soccer chant, and the assembly.
It was a pleasure to host the group for the day. We hope they have a safe return home!
