Parent Involvement












It is always very nice to have parents cooperating with anything going on in the class. This time, they came to tell us how they celebrate Christmas at their home countries. Interesting! Thank you again...

\the winter show and new unit of inquiry: Super Senses



The Winter show took place on December 12th, where all classes have participated. It went really nice. Thanks to all the parents that helped us in this.
Our new unit: Super Senses. It has been so great. Here we were learning about Sight. What would we live without this sense? Very interesting...

Children's Day



On the 20th of November, we celebrated the International Children Rights day. We launched helium balloons in the air. It was really nice and emotional. Our children were feeling just like kings and queens, they actually really are.

Dance Unit




We are preparing for our dance performance.
Making our posters to inform the whole school about the event.
Also, the kids act out the story of the "Noisy Monkey". They loved it!
