In connection to the theme "Sharing the Planet", some learners were interested to ask and inquire about several natural resouces, as well as their uses. They also shared their research findings with their peers.

Happy #WorldReadAloudDay ! This is how my learners were celebrating today their love of reading stories. @Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi @HalaAlKotob

Today learners were flying their own "learning plane." If learners know the outcome of learning,then they have taken ownership of their learning.That's why 2nd graders were setting their success criteria which makes learning visible to the teacher & learner.@Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi

As a provocation, learners were given some pictures & they sorted them into two classifications using the thinking tool "What Makes You Say That?". After watching a video, they sorted them again & identified things that are natural & those that are man-made. @Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi

Because learning is fun, we were searching for nouns everywhere through "Noun Hunt Strategy". @dina_jradi @Hhhsinfo @HalaAlKotob

Inquiring about organizations, grade two learners showed high interest while listening to the founder of "Absir Campaign" and were aware of the service it provides. @Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi @DaraziFarah

Thank you dear parents for joining our "Open House" today. We believe that parent-teacher collaboration is required for the development of our learners. @Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi @RanaKasab @DorraNivin @alissar_kassab @shreiteh_hiba @RaniaKhalili3 @ZaatariRania @KabritMalak

Since hundreds of forest fires broke out on Tuesday, grade 2 learners shared aloud their worries regarding the Lebanese victims and the burned forests. Then they did posters encouraging others to plant trees. @dina_jradi @Hhhsinfo @DaraziFarah

Today we celebrated our bilingual story "Feelings" through reading.While grade 2 learners were reading aloud the English version of the story, Sasha was reading aloud the Spanish version.Learners felt excited and appreciated different languages.@Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi @HalaAlKotob

Bringing mindfulness into our daily lives, today my learners did "Sound Hunt" and focused on their senses to expand their awareness of their surroundings. After writing their observations, they used proofreading marks to edit their sentences.@Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi @DaraziFarah

[Hiba Zaatari @zaatari_hiba]

Do you meditate? In mindfulness meditation, grade two learners were learning how to pay attention to the breath as it goes in and out. This practice of returning to the breath builds the muscle of attention and mindfulness. @dina_jradi @DaraziFarah @Hhhsinfo

Calm down and get your zentagle on.
Learning about "Mindfulness", grade two learners used the zentangle method today to increase their concentration and focus on the present moment, as well as provide a sense of well-being through artistic expression. @Hhhsinfo @dina_jradi
