Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don’t give only your care, but give your heart as well –Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Super job earning another Lexia award!


We helped the Earth this week by cleaning up garbage around the schoolyard.


 In health, Mr.  Berg came to talk to us again about being social detectives.

 In science we looked for bugs around the schoolyard.





 We enjoyed a beautiful spring concert from choir, chimes and handbells.

 We finished our Easter Eggs art projects.


 We explored the water cycle in science.

 We each took home our our water cycle bag to experiment with.

In religion we continued to discuss how we are all beautifully made in God's image.

 We learned about Japanese culture to prepare for the Japanese exchange students visit.
 We read Suki's Kimono and designed our own kimonos.



 We welcomed six exchange students from Japan into our classroom.
They taught us how to use chopsticks.



 They taught how to say hello in Japanese.
 They taught us how to print our name in Japanese.





 They taught us how to say goodbye in Japanese.

 They taught us how to do origami.




 That ends another busy week in grade two!
