Making Community Connections

At the Great Neck Social Center, a 3rd grade class spent time communicating with senior citizens, all of whom speak Mandarin Chinese and are currently taking classes to learn English. Their goals were to help them practice English while playing games like Uno and Ticket to Ride. Students explained how each game works, guided the seniors step-by-step, and helped them practice English vocabulary throughout. It was a wonderful day of connection, communication, and learning for everyone involved.
