We had our first meeting with our 5th grade Buddies!

Due to illness, it's been a while since my last post.  Today our class met their fifth grade buddies from Dayle Wright's class for the first time!  We did puzzles together as a "get to know you activity" and we began planning for our joint presentation at next week's all school morning meeting about "Trick or Treat for UNICEF".  The children in both classes are learning what a BIG difference a small amount of money can make in the lives of children who lack clean water, enough food, medicine and school supplies.  Mr. Wright and I will be helping the classes to prepare a skit that informs the school how easy it is to collect change as you collect candy.  We are hoping it will be a record setting year for Orchard School's UNICEF collection.
