Thank you to @MsMoralesTeach and @MrsHiggins_6th’s class for teaching us a new activity! It was easy, fun, calming, and creative. We all left with a unique piece of work.

We ❤️ our 6th grade sweethearts! The morning started with things we love about our class, we shared amazing “love letter” lyrical poetry with parents, and ended with our 2nd grade buddies. Our hearts are full! 💚💛 @MsMoralesTeach @Ms_Choi_2 @CindyGervasi
