Grade 2 Bro Benjamin
The boys had the opportunity to learn about friendship and inclusion, regardless of our differences and uniqueness. Now they know that if they had to meet a Deaf friend, they can communicate using Maltese Sign Language - which is one of the official 3 languages in Malta together with Maltese and English. Special thanks to Ms Emma Ripard Xuereb from Deaf People Association Malta who took the time to teach us the signs of the Lasallian hymn 'One La Salle'. The boys also enjoyed and showed interest while practicing the alphabet in Maltese Sign Language.

The boys watched a video about climate change and learnt about global warming. Afterwards, they carried out an experiment in relation to global warming. The boys prepared two trays with a mini-environment made from blocks. Then they put some ice cubes in each tray. The boys then covered one of the trays with a layer of plastic cling wrap. The boys had to observe and record how long it took for the ice to melt in each tray. This experiment represented the greenhouse effect.
