Service Project: Operation Christmas Child

by Miss Roush,
4th grade teacher

This year, we decided as a class to participate in Operation Christmas Child. This service project involves filling shoeboxes with Christmas gifts to be sent to children who might not get any Christmas presents. The kids in our class were very generous. We brought in enough gifts to fill 12 boxes for boys and girls who are the same age and the kids in our classroom! Our class enjoyed writing letters to put in each box as well. We spent some of our recess time wrapping each box to send to some very special children for Christmas.
