The Whales are Changemakers and Game Players!

This week the Whales explored the topic of what a refugee is. Whales noticed that refugees are people who had to leave their home because they were in danger. They discovered that many refugees who are coming to a brand new place like Oregon don’t always feel welcome. The Whales remembered what it was like to feel welcomed on the first day of school. As Changemakers the Whales started writing welcome letters to refugees who are coming to live in Oregon. The Whales worked so hard all week finishing their welcome letters and are getting excited about putting together welcome kits with donated items when they return from spring break. They are Changemakers and they are so proud of the kindness that they are spreading to others!

The Whales finished the week off by coming to Family Game Night on Thursday. So many Whales and their families were able to learn new math games, enjoy the company of others, and eat some yummy treats! A huge shoutout to all of our Game Night volunteers!! We hope every Whale has a great spring break and gets to play some of their new games.
