November 3th-November 7th

We had another busy week. The class enjoyed the Peace Assembly and had fun doing some Halloween activities! Alex was Student of the Week and his dad joined us for snack. He shared some very interesting information about his work in Antarctica with the Air Force. The class had so many questions!
