Holiday Card Exchange

Currently our classroom is working on an online "Holiday Card Exchange" with other schools across the United States and Canada as well! We have received cards from schools in Arizona, Michigan, North Carolina and Ottawa, Ontario. I have mapped the cards we've gotten on a map in the hallway so if you're around at school check it out. The kids are really excited!!! I'll post pictures of our map when the exchange is almost over.

" Our Special Guest-Rocky the Baby Squirrel"

Mrs. Messer brought her 7 week old baby squirrel to school to show the students. Rocky was rescued by Mrs. Messer's family. He eats dog food, apples and milk from a syringe.
