 |  Tali sharing the story behind his special toy |
 Second graders doing a gallery walk to experience what makes a good comfort product |  We asked second grade students to bring their special or favorite toys. Students said goodbye to their toys and tucked them in to leave them for a whole weekend. |
 The next monday when students arrived. All the toys were missing! |
​
San Diego has one of the largest
refugee resettlement populations in
the country. Inspired by the
childhood stories of one of our own
classroom teachers and the recent 6
year old student letter to President
Obama about helping Syrian
refugees we thought this project
would be an authentic way to
connect students to the world
around us and continue to develop
their capacity for empathy and
compassion for others. Through
this project students will be
learning about ways we can provide
service to members of our
community who need our help.
