In our UOI lesson, the students had a fun and engaging activity about their favorite stories. They drew pictures to show what their chosen stories were about and excitedly shared them with their friends. Each student talked about the characters in their story, explained why they liked it, and described where the story takes place. It was wonderful to see their creativity and confidence as they expressed their ideas and learned more about each other’s favorite tales.

We had a stranger drill at school, and a policewoman came to talk to the students. She explained important safety precautions, the do’s and don’ts, and the rules to follow when there’s a stranger around. She reminded everyone not to talk to or go anywhere with strangers, never to accept gifts or rides, and to always stay close to a trusted adult. The students listened carefully and learned how to keep themselves safe in different situations.

Our class had a wonderful collaboration with the Milky Way class from the Minami Campus and the Grade 1 students from Gojo Elementary School. Together, they enjoyed fun activities, including a scavenger hunt where they explored nature and celebrated the beautiful autumn season. Everyone had such a great time working and playing together, and the day became even more special when they shared lunch and enjoyed their yummy obentos with friends.

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!
