Our class was privileged to have a classroom visit from David Catrow, illustrator for Despicable Me, I Wanna Iguana, and over 700 other awesome projects. We have a framed picture that he drew just for us!
Our fifth grade joined in a community wide effort to help feed starving children from around the world. Students worked for 2 hours measuring, weighing, sealing, and packing bags of nourishing chicken rice soup. Our shift bagged enough to feed over 200 children one meal a day for an entire year!
Fifth grade students had their first of two business days to help raise money for upcoming field trips, auction, etc. Other grades came to admire and purchase the wares.
