Once again our World Geography and Cultures Food Festivities to wrap up our Immigration and World Geography unit was a smash hit! Parents came in to celebrate, and the kids brought in foods from either their own cultural background or one that they admire. After all their hard work learning to read maps, reading and writing about historical waves of immigration, and finishing their tests, it was a perfect way to wrap up.
Highlights from our World Geography and Cultures Food Festivities
Some of the foods we enjoyed include:
- Chicken curry and naan from India
- Hummus and pita from Egypt
- Kielbasa and Latkes from Poland
- Lemon soup from Greece
- Salsa and corn chips from Mexico
- Scallion pancakes from China

World Geography and Cultures Name that Flag Competition
We replayed both of these videos of the countries at our World Geography Cultural Party:
Even though when I was a kid, I loved watching Yakko of Animaniacs fame sing the countries.







GREAT videos! I hadn't ever come across those before! Thanks so much for sharing! I also really like your 'Name the Flag' event with the different foods! We did something similar for our last project...we had our own mini Ethnic Expo & each group (there were 8) made foods from their country. On my side of the room, the group researching England did Fish & Chips, India made Raita (a yummy yogurt dip) & pita chips, Brazil had a cheese bread, & Spain made a Spanish Omelet. They had SO much fun with that project! Thanks for sharing & thanks for linking up!
