Last slide presentation at the school

Finally we have come to the last presentation! All the 2nd grade classes and one 3rd grade class came to the Multi Purpose Room / Cafeteria at the end of the day. This was the biggest crowd that we ever had and all the students shared their concerns for the people in Otsuchi, Japan. When we showed the picture of the Otsuchi children holding their messages of what they want right now, many students in the audience didn't believe it when they saw that what these children wanted most was to take a hot bath. Taking a bath seems like something we do all the time and you wouldn't expect that it would be something you would wish for. We explained that those children didn't think of it at all either before the earthquake and tsunami but now when you don't have it, it becomes something that you really want.
After the talk, the students all had a better understanding what these children are now facing. They raised their hands and gave us so many suggestions as to how they thought they could help. Thank you Mr. Anderson, Mr. Cruciani, Ms. Long, Ms. Giustino, and Mr. Martin for giving us the opportunity to meet with your amazing students.
