Spreading the Spirit of Christmas


I took a group of my jouralism students down to the elementary school today and we read to the special needs students. It was such a great experience. We went into two classes at the elementary school, one for grades K-3 and the other 4-6. We also read Christmas stories and sang to the special needs/severe unit at our high school. It was wonderful to see my little journalists reaching out to the special needs kids who ate up every moment of it! And the teachers loved that we were entertaining their vacation-restless students. I really feel full of the Christmas spirit tonight.

Merry Christmas everyone! May your holidays be bright.

I bet that was such a fun and fulfilling experience. I love the shirt you're wearing. I know I've told you that several times. But can I pls inherit it when you're sick of it?

What a neat memory for all of those kids. I'm sure that helped them all have the Christmas Spirit!
