Our second graders had an exciting fourth quarter to wrap up the school year! Their recent adventures kicked off with an LET to the Honolulu Zoo, where they got a glimpse into different animal habitats up close. Our students have also been working hard to raise awareness about local issues. They heard from the Honolulu Police Department (HPD) about current challenges in our community, and also visited Honolulu Hale to learn about local issues like e-bikes and recycling. Helping to cross the finish line of the school year, our second graders put their vocabulary skills to the test in an exciting and energetic Spelling Bee! ๐พ๐ฎ๐ ๐
These are just a few highlights from a packed quarter, and a showstopper was the culmination of a project our students have been working on since the beginning of the school year. We are so grateful to for their incredible guidance, vision, and collaboration. They championed student voice by empowering our second graders throughout the creative process, shaping their ideas into a masterpiece. Under HOTโs mentorship, our young artists took on the roles of writers, producers, and performers to debut their very own opera! They truly shined on stage during a daytime performance for the whole school, followed by an unforgettable evening show for their families!๐ญ๐ค๐
