The AHS World Languages Department invited the
7th and 8th grade students from all of the Arrowhead feeder school districts to
participate in Arrowhead High School's International Day on October 18, 2012.
The event was planned to celebrate world cultures and languages by giving
our students the opportunity to share their knowledge and skills with the
younger students.

Arrowhead students planned presentations, fun
games, engaging activities, and sang and danced with the younger students, all
while offering them experiences with other languages and cultures. They
taught short language lessons in Chinese, French, German and Spanish. Some
students also served as tour guides for our visitors, as they "traveled around
the world" together. They also prepared an informational poster
scavenger hunt, which served as a raffle ticket and allowed the students the
chance to win prizes donated by the school's language clubs.
It was a great chance for our students to develop
leadership skills and build their confidence! The event was a
collaborative effort organized by Ms. Armour, Mrs. Coraggio, Ms. Koepke, Mrs.
Neumann-Hayes, Ms. Psket, Mrs. Schueth, and Mrs. Yao, along with the assistance
of many dedicated teachers in our feeder schools that brought their students to
us for the day.
A GREAT event and FUN had by all!!
