"Casas" for Haiti

The Kindergarten and First Grade classes made "Casas" out of Shrinky Dinks to raise money for Haitian earthquake victims. The students used this opportunity to practice colors in Spanish. The proceeds will be used to build a real "casa" for a homeless family when Señora Girman goes to Haiti in January!
