End of The Year Celebration

Morning ESL students did a wonderful job this morning! Heather’s class read poems that represent the holiday season. Jisselle’s class sang Christmas Carols and made a presentation about holiday traditions in their own countries. Julia’s class shared a video of the play they made about the folk tale, The Gingerbread Man. What a great way to end the year!

Have a Wonderful Holiday!
