What a lovely and busy week we had!
During this week we worked very hard on our IPC project “The Stories People Tell”. The children were fascinated with some of the Legends we are studying. We learned about Siddhartha and how he became Buddha, and how he showed some of our very own ISG Personal Values, like respect, thoughtfulness, resilience, morality and adaptability. We are also reading other legends from different cultures like China (The Dragon Emperor) and England (Robin Hood).
On Thursday we had the most amazing time hearing the children stories about family members and their experiences. The stories were extremely profound and full of adventures. Thank you for sharing that with us. The children were very enthusiastic and they will be working on creating their very own legend inspired on their very special family member.
This week we also started looking at a new ISG Personal Value: Adaptability. During our class discussions we all agree that coming to a new country requires a lot of ADAPTABILITY. We all are doing our best in adapting to our new environment and are working very hard on making the best out of it. We talked about the things we miss the most from our home countries! Some miss the weather, the food and their friends. It was lovely to hear that one of the children’s favourite thing from Belgium was ISG!!!!
Here are some pictures of the children at work. Enjoy!
I wish you all a great weekend, take care and see you on Monday!
