Crystal the African Gray Parrot arrives






Crystal is a regular visitor to Room 205 but this year is an exception because she arrived in the fall instead of the spring. She usually comes to visit once the students have learned the daily routines and are self sufficient in their learning. This class has proven to be well disciplined and  their behaviors and abilities to follow directions have earned them this opportunity  . Well done kids of 205!
Crystal is here until Halloween.

Sharing Flat Stanley's adventures
