3rd and 4th grade students visited the residents at Logan Assisted Living in Shelby this morning! We hand delivered Easter cards and well wishes for a wonderful Easter. The residents even spent time before our arrival hiding eggs for the kiddos so they could watch them partake in an Easter Egg Hunt. The joy on both the kids and residents faces was priceless!

In the activity, students used this information to design and build a hat that protected them from the Sun. Something we're definitely lacking this spring! haha
