paper cranes with room 12 . . . 2015

Every year I visit room 12 at the school where I work and teach a class of 4th graders how to fold origami cranes.  I look forward to this every year . . . I love 4th graders!  This year's class did such a great job. I only wish I could post pictures of their faces . . . their smiles are the best!  As I promised them . . . pictures of all of their paper cranes!

I wonder if clouds ever look down on us and say . . . "Hey look . . . that one is shaped like an idiot."
