We were delighted to have Angelica back to our classroom on Friday. She instructed our students on how to be more respectful to each other and how to accept somebody else´s opinion. I truly believe that we will be much more prepared for 3rd Grade after her activities. Our students are being more mature as the weeks go by. Thank you, Angelica and thank you, Ms. Leal for your suggestion of having her in our classroom!
