Helping Japan

Well, we finished our marble collecting! On Friday we estimated how many marbles we thought we had earned in 2 weeks. Then, with a couple of parents in to watch (and armed with check books), we counted 81 marbles! That means that I wrote a check for $81 as did 2 other parents so our class was able to donate $243 to Feed the Hungry (http://www.feedthehungry.org/) to help Japan. Audrey (my sister who lives in Japan) was also there and she taught the kids how to write their names in Japanese! She was so excited to see the Japanese flags,

Carp, and cheery blossoms, that we made to decorate the class for her! Way to go, kindergarteners!
