learning sales. Our school's principal, Mr. Lee, has fostered a tremendous service learning project approach in our school. Service learning has transformed students in many ways. In the old days you'd often see groups of children waiting for the principal for discipline, but now, at our school, most groups of students are waiting to see the principal to discuss, plan, and initiate a new service learning activity. It's been an engaging, empowering effort in so many ways.

| Some students will sell handmade clay figures. |
On Wednesday morning, students will finalize their signage, collection boxes, and sales techniques. Then we'll head down to create the sale stations, and sell the goods at our class's homemade marketplace. Once the sales are complete and the money collected, students will write letters and send the money to the reservations as one way to help protect endangered species (and practice math, reading, and writing skills :). I'll be sure to take some pictures of this event as I imagine it will be a colorful, action-packed endeavor.
