Dear Families,

Your first and second graders never cease to amaze me! This week we learned about the Japanese bento box. Did you know . . . . . . .

                   that they are typically made by the mom?

                  that they are a symbol of love between the maker and the eater?

                  that rice is the main staple of any Japanese bento box?

After learning about them, we began to create our own. Check out the process! The students used Model Magic, markers, felt, pipe cleaners and tissue paper to make representations of their favorite foods. The finished boxes will be on display soon!

Reminder:
The Second Grade International Fair is this Wednesday morning at 8:30.

Shabbat Shalom and have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.
