Chuga-Chuga!

More trains this week as Art Around the World landed in Russia. Once I had everyone’s attention we thought about our castles from last week and looked at the type of castles they had in Russia. Then we looked at the Russian flag and thought of other flags that had the same colors. “The Britain Flag!” is what one of my male students yelled immediately. I was little disappointed with how long it took for someone to point out that the American flag was red white and blue…

The pictures of trains are what google images claimed to be Russian trains.

Obviously I LOVE this one.
