Students in Mrs. Karker's French classes recently celebrated Mardi Gras in style by creating their own colorful parade floats! Embracing the festivity, students worked to craft vibrant floats, showcasing their creativity. This hands-on activity helped them learn about French culture and Mardi Gras traditions. Afterward, they paraded the floats through the middle school!
