Nutcracker
Miss Carrie, Edwin and Louise's mom, came to the school and explained all about the Nutcracker Ballet. The children got to try on costumes that are worn by the dancers in the performances! Thank you, Miss Carrie!
Engine 9 Visit
On December 9, Room 283 students visited the Engine 9 Fire Station on Lexington Avenue. Lieutenant Casey and his colleagues told us about their responsibilities as firefighters. The children observed the fire engine and professional firefighting equipment. Everybody received a firefighter helmet and a sticker as a gift. Thank you Ms. Sandra for organizing such a wonderful field trip!
