It's Christmas Time in Fourth Grade

We have been very busy making all kinds of Christmas ornaments and crafts. We have even worked on a special gift for parents! In addition to making special things for ourselves, we have also worked on making  lap blankets for our friends at Carlyle Place. The children are anxiously waiting for our visit there on Monday, where we will sing carols and deliver our gifts.
