Passport to the World


Every year the international community at SVSU hosts Passport to the World, an event for local school children to "travel" to other countries in the world.


Yesterday, I spent most of the time snapping "passport" photos of busloads of students. The elementary school students then took their passports to visit different country tables and have their passports stamped. 

Along with the usual poster boards and PowerPoint presentations, we also had storytelling, origami, a world fashion show, music and dancing.

It was a loud, long day for English Language Program teachers and International Programs staff, but it was fun!
