We have successfully raised $122.93 to buy our animal. My friend's company has also graciously agreed to match our donation amount so we will be giving $245.86 to buy both a sheep and a pig! Thank you for all your help in this season of giving! You can check out our project on www.heifer.org!
Would you like to share about a tradition that your family has? We would love to hear from you!

What Are We Up To In Room 115?

We will be reviewing fractions this week and focusing on learning how fractions are equivalent.
