Grandpals Day

The class loved having their grandpas come and visit them last Friday!

 

Busy week!

This week has been fun-filled! Students have worked on Grandpals' Day artwork, made examples of lungs, and celebrated Red Ribbon Week by donating, wearing team jerseys, mismatched shoes, and pajamas! We are looking forward to Grandpals' Day tomorrow!
