More Bullying Resources

Begin research for phoenix festival. A good way to do this is to create committees/ groups for each task that needs to be completed. There is no “right way” to do this. Please also secure at least one parent volunteer for the day of the festival.
 * Weeks Two and Three**
 * Suggested committees:
 * poster committee (include fun/interesting facts such as language, religion, food, clothing)
 * game/ craft committee (each booth should have a game or activity for people to participate in; this can be used as a fundraising opportunity)
 * food committee (each booth should have food from the country. In the past, students have had food donated from a local restaurant and sold it or parents have donated prepared food to sell)
 * clean up crew
 * clothing (in the past some booths have worn traditional dress)


 * Date of Phoenix Festival: Friday, November 16 **
