Today we had a very special guest, Ms. Diane. She was born with CP just like Petey in our read aloud book. Kids got to interact with her and ask questions of all kinds. She was amazing and one of the most positive people I have ever met, Just like Petey!! What a great connection for the kids. Thanks Mrs. Hankins for setting this up and allowing us to join in!

We Did It!
WOOHOO!!! WE made change happen! I am so, so, so proud of my class. The process was long and required a lot of research and patience, but we did it! We got the people that have the power to change procedures to understand that the current trays used in our cafeteria are horrible for the Earth and it's environment. Now, we are piloting a basket tray, and today it went great. We also discovered that instead of 1 and a half bags of garbage it only took up 3/4 of a small garbage can. Again...WOOHOO!! Anything is possible if you just BELIEVE!!
