Every year the second grade puts on a hat parade. Each child is assigned a country and is asked to make a hat representing the country. Alexa got Finland. At first it seemed like it would be hard to come up with something, but after a little research Alexa found out some interesting facts: Finland has over 187,000 lakes. It has over 75% forrest. To say hello in Finnish is "Moi." The country mainly speaks Finnish and Swedish. There were other facts to choose from, but they could only say 3 during their speech. During the hat parade, all the students sit go in front of a microphone and say their speech. Then in between each class they sing songs from all different countries. At the very end they all formed a circle throughout the audience and sang "It's a Small World."
