More fun with our 5th graders!! One of their story’s was the play, “The Miracle of Spring.” Students were given parts and had to act it out in front of the class. This was a very fun play to act out, all the students absolutely loved it! Spring was banned by a King. Because of this, the trees were not bearing fruit, the lamb was not shedding its fur, honey bee could not make honey, and all of Mother Nature was affected in some way. In the end, King came to his senses and apologized to Spring. Spring returned and all was right with the world. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
