Ethan's Halmoni Teaches About Korea


One of the stories in our Voyagers Unit is called Yunmi and Halmoni's Trip.

The story is about a Halmoni (Korean for grandmother) who lives with her granddaughter in New York City. Yunmi and Halmoni go back to Korea to visit  relatives.  Yunmi gets worried that Halmoni will want to stay in Korea and not return with her to America because Halmoni is having so much fun with the relatives.

To complement the story, Ethan's halmoni and mother visited our class and brought one of the dishes that was mentioned in our story. Mandoo are Korean dumplings filled with vegetables and meat.

Halmoni taught everyone some Korean! Mrs. Kim taught the class how to use chopsticks!






Please enjoy some picture from the wonderful cultural experience!
