5/6 Knitting project

In case you're wondering what all that peace and quiet is that's going on in the morning, Mary's class is taking up knitting. A few years ago, Mary used knitting as a way for her students to settle into their day during the winter months. It's so much more peaceful than all that running back and forth between classroom and hallway to catch up on the overnight gossip! With donated needles and yarn, this year's fifth and sixth graders are working on scarves for a homeless shelter and cat and dog blankets for the animal shelter.
