The holiday season has come and passed, but Ms. Merz’s second graders have that feeling of giving a great gift in them for a while. This year they adopted a family who was less fortunate than themselves and made their holiday season great by giving them gifts and presents. Families in this classroom sent in small donations to help cover the cost of the gifts. Then, room parent, Mrs. Michelle Gill, went to various stores to purchase the family what they asked for. Some of the items were: Leap Frog Learning Pads, Walmart gift cards, and new clothes. We asked Caroline what the family had actually asked for, and Caroline said: “They asked for toys, books, and clothes.” Caroline also said that [helping this family] makes her feel great.
