Every morning, the first graders participate in a morning meeting. Hero enjoyed seeing the students talk about the calendar, number of days in school, weather and more. In the United States, many classes pledge the flag in the morning too.
Hero loved leading the line through the hallways of our school. He knows that students need to be quiet when traveling from class to class so that other children can learn. Hero thought it was fun to walk along with the line leader!
Hero was very excited to meet Profe Rose, our Spanish teacher. He learned lots of words alongside the first graders. He is hoping that he will learn many new languages as he travels around the world this year!
Hero was really excited to meet one of our two Vice Principals at our school. He knows that he is very busy helping the children, teachers and parents, so was thrilled to have a chance to say hello!
Hero loved meeting one of our 1R parents, who is a doctor and researcher. She talked to the children and Hero about their skeletons as well as lots of ways to stay healthy. Hero got a lot of great tips!
Hero investigated the relationship between the length of the strings on a piano to pitch. He learned that the longer the strings, the lower the pitch. He loved learning with the 1R scientists!
Hero eats healthy meals every day to keep his body strong. He enjoyed seeing what children in the United States eat and wondered what other kids around the world have for lunch.
Hero worked alongside the first graders as they learned how to debug programs. He now knows that lots of people make mistakes when they are coding, but that they can be easily fixed.
The first graders shared their snacks with Hero Bear. We have healthy snacks every morning to give us the energy we need to learn. Some of Hero’s favorite snacks are oranges, strawberries and apples.
Hero asked the children in 1R to help him get some exercise on their school field and playground. Having good health is very important to him, and he loved finding out how the students in Brookline get exercise every day outside. At our school, the boys and girls go outside…
