Grade 6 spent time in Humanities talking about the war in Ukraine and the students felt they wanted to help the Ukrainian refugees in some way. We spoke specifically about the children, leaving their homes and family members, going to schools where they may not be able to speak the language and so our students decided to make some cards and offer their support. Some of the students decided to use google translate and write a note in Ukrainian, some sent an inspirational quote and others chose a more personal message, but ALL of the cards were decorated and crafted with care. Mrs. Sylvestro’s Grade 7 Advisory joined in and the stack of cards grew exponentially into a mountain of love and support. With only a two day timeline, the students were able to make a card AND collect some toiletries and non-perishable foods to be included in a shipment leaving for Poland by week’s end. Way to care Gators!
