Our temps are below freezing in the morning and evenings and gloves are often misplaced. They went so quickly and were very much appreciated. \r\nThe lip balm is essential since the cold is drying everyone out. The cup noodle soups are their favorite treat to earn by completing assignments. A lot if she students save them for after school since they don't have time to go home and eat before practices begin.
