Hello everyone,

With only three days until the end of the school year, one of the last events on the calendar was held today. The English recitation contest was recorded last week and we watched the video of it today in homeroom. Congratulations to everyone who participated.

The grade 1 students chose either “Zorba’s Promise” or “I’ll always Love You”. Grade 2 students all performed the classic Frog and Toad story “The Letter”. Grade 3 students did a story about Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, or “The Carpenter’s Gift”, a story about neighborly love.

It is difficult to remember a long story, but that is only half the job. The other half is telling the story in an interesting and energetic way. But, actually, telling the story with passion makes it easier to remember. I hope that next year we have some new students challenge and do their best.

Good job everyone!
