Thank you, ACC, for teaching us about the culture of Africa. It was very fun and was very fun and interesting. I would like to have you guys back next year. It was worth waiting.

ACC has helped me learn not only about Africa, but also about the history. I really love the dance we’ve been doing and I’m excited to perform it for the whole school.

I really had a great experience. You really helped me with my confidence. I used to be really shy to dance in front of people. Mr. Charles, I am so grateful that you came to Bell Ryan Elementary. You changed the world into a better place.

I learned so much from ACC like how to make a Djembe drum. Also, that you need a license to cut down trees in some forrest in Africa if you want to make a drum.

I really liked ACC and I want to do it over and over again. The dance is very elegant. Your humor is very funny. You taught us very well. I never had that kind of teacher before.

I’m so happy because I learned so much about ACC. I enjoyed learing about the seven kingdoms and the kingdom dance. I had so much fun learning how to drum with the sticks and smiling and dancing with my friends.

I had a blast this year with African Culture Connection! Thank you very much for taking the time and money to provide us with food, music, dancing, art and much more fun activities. One of my favorite things to do this year was learning different ty[es of dances, especially the Kingdom Dance. I loved learning about different kinds of jewelry and music and even making our music with drums was so exciting. The food was very yummy! I really appreciate you buying us the food. I am really thrilled to get the opportunity to learn about Africa and its culture.
