Our KG2 students have enjoyed another exciting week, filled with interesting activities and a range of fun learning experiences. They continued working on their sounds in all of our languages - Arabic, English, German and French. The classes have also explored the story of "Red Riding Hood'' and recreated the story in form of a little theatre. In Science, the children took care of their plants in our SISD Garden - they are excited to watch them grow! There was lots of discussion about how we can express gratitude towards our community helpers in SISD and the children thanked them for caring for all of us. Finally, the students continued to learn about the weather and created a Weatherman show for their classmates - the end of a very busy week!
