The Polar Express
On December 23rd the students changed into their pajamas, waited outside in the hallway while Mrs. Halvis read to them, and then boarded the Polar Express in their classroom with their very own punched ticket! It was just like a real train… Did I mention we got to eat an endless amount of cookies, rice crispy treats, and candy? What a great reading incentive this was!
