Aloha Family and Friends of D2!
This week we learned all about different vegetables and why it is important to eat them. On Monday we learned about carrots. We learned that carrots are healthy for your eyes and your skin. Everyone tried at at least one bite of carrot, and some had several! Afterwards, the kids wrote whether or not they like how the carrots tasted.
On Tuesday we all tried snap peas. Overall, this was the kids least favorite vegetable that we tried this week.
On Wednesday we learned about and sampled celery. We learned that celery helps make our bones strong!
Mrs. Q stopped by on Friday and showed us some of the vegetables from her garden at her family's farm. They grow all kinds of yummy vegetables!
In Social Studies this month we are learning about some of the countries in Europe. So far we have studied France and Italy.
We learned that in France kids put out their shoes on Christmas Eve for Pere Noel to leave gifts in. We also practiced saying "bon jour" to each other in the mornings, which is hello is French.
In Italy families play a game at Christmas called "urn of fate." A bowl is passed around with presents and everyone takes one. Some have gifts inside and some are empty!
On Friday, after finishing our final lesson on Italy, we had a pizza party for earing the most tickets during the 2nd quarter Million Miles Campaign!
If you would like to order books from the Scholastic, orders and money are due next Friday.
Report cards will be going home this Thursday!
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Kawai
