Hurricane Irma devastated our town about three months ago. Many of our students were left homeless, and all of their belongings were destroyed. Never in a million years did we think that the recovery process would take this long. We're still trying to get everyone back on their feet. No matter where our kids sleep at night, they'll have a soft pillow pet to sleep with. The pillow pets will offer my students something to comfort them when they don't know where they're sleeping from night to night. The sketch pads and markers will bring out the STEM in my students. I can't wait to see what they create with them!
