Today’s blog is a bit of a weird one. First, thanks to all of those that have already donated or sent in coins with their children. We’re doing so much to help people in West Africa and I couldn’t be prouder. To help raise more donations, today the class summarized our campaign and wrote lines to say in a video production. The video will be included below, as well as on the facebook donation page. Also, I’m including the link to the video for our end of the year songs, both for our class and for Spanish. Please make sure your child is practicing both regularly. Finally, directly below, I have included the miracles and hopes each of the students came up with for the end of the year program. They will be saying this together during the program, so make sure they are practicing it as well. If you have a conversation with them and want to change it, send me a message. Thanks and enjoy the videos!
Link for audio of the song is here. The professional recording is here.
Spanish song is here.
You can also see it on youtube and share it here. Or check it out on our facebook page here.
