George Washington birthday



Today’s session at Window on America center Dnipropetrovsk (Ukraine) was dedicated to the 280th anniversary of the first American President George Washington.
The group of 21 pupils from the secondary school #23 and theirs teachers Ms M. Abramova and Ms. J. Zhdanova visited our facility.
The students watched a slide show about the biography of George Washington, about sights of Washington D.C, about the memorial place.
The information was illustrated with several YouTube videos.
The WOA director Svitlana Usenko who has been to Washington city felt rather nostalgic and missed the positive emotions of her trips to the USA.
The numerous books presented to the students aroused a lot of interest. The WOA collection features books on many aspects of American presidency – from the speeches of the US presidents to the first ladies’ backgrounds, from the statistics on elections to the interiors of the White House.
The number of visitors22 persons.
