What a great event!
Second grade were fantastic performers, very effective in sharing the learning from their most recent unit of inquiry, and the food contributed by all the families was delicious!
Ms. Catasti, our elementary vice-principal wrote a great blog post about it here. The post included the video below, and more. Take a look!

Today’s post is from Kota, in his own words…
I like partner reading. I don’t like reading a lot but I like to see the pictures. When I make partner, we need to “SAISHO-WA-GOO” with my friend Yuki. We read. Then we see pictures and say it is fun. If it is not fun, we read different books.
Today’s writing is from Femke, in her own words.
She wrote in her mother tongue, German.
She is saying hello to her mum from 2R.

“How are you? Are you good or not? I am going home today.”

Grade two got an invitation we couldn’t resist… Joining 4G to learn about division! Division isn’t something that we formally study in G2, but it’s great to get a window into new kinds of mathematical thinking, and great practice for the G4s to try to transfer their understanding by teaching us.
Please note the music was choice of the G4s!
This post is from Elena, in her own words.
We talked about weather in the book club, mine was “Respect the winds”. I didn’t know that is a true story or not. It was about “Maui” who made a kite. And there is the keeper of the wind. There are bottles, sometime there is a strong wind, soft wind misty wind. There are lots bottles. She knows which is which.
What do you think about the story?
Good. Because you know, there is a lot of kinds of Cinderella story but this is like a story from their brain, they don’t just copy.
Today’s post is from Airi, in her own words…
In 2R we read a book called Snowflake Bentley. There was a boy that liked snowflakes and when the boy got bigger he drawed lots of snowflakes. And there was lots of kinds of snowflakes. 2R made some snowflakes and we put it at the window.
What did you learn about snowflakes?
There’s three or six branches at the corner.
Lots of snowflakes.
