Today we had a spring celebration! A huge thank you to Julie Levine and Nataliya Belkin for planning and organizing such an amazing celebration! Thank you to all of the volunteers for helping the students complete the activities and for running such a smooth and fun celebration!
This week we also made flowers out of diffusing paper and Eric Carle inspired flowers to decorate the room for spring! We wrote spring poems and painted beautiful spring trees using water colors. Spring has sprung in room 158!
