On Tuesday (one week before the last day of school) we gathered for one last GAPP class. All semester we've been meeting during our Hornet Time (study hall) and learning about traveling to Germany. We've submitted all of our documents, learned about cultural differences in German homes and what to expect and how to behave during our visit to the Dachau Concentration Camp. Most of all, hopefully the students have gotten to know each other better and will have a good support system for when we are abroad.
At our last parent meeting, students were gifted goodie bags from GAPP - it's GAPP's 50th anniversary! One day a large box showed up with tote bags, t-shirts, water bottles, luggage tags, post-it notes, hand sanitizer, etc! How cool! Thank you, GAPP! At our very last GAPP meeting, we did a check-in to make sure Frau has everything she needs from students, we did some vocabulary practice with plates, cutlery, cups, and napkins, and practiced eating Pizza with a fork and knife like Europeans! We also put together our GAPP journals. Each student is responsible for bringing their GAPP journal to Germany. We'll be filling it out over there during our meetings and KvC classes. KvC is the abbreviation for our partner school, Karl-von-Closen. See below for a picture of where we'll be! See you at the airport soon!
