Mrs. Harbourn took her group out in the community to hide the rocks they painted in art therapy!! We viewed this activity as sprinkling parts of self within our community. We talked about how we can add value to our environment and people with acts of kindness. We focused on what it means to be a part of a community! We visited local businesses and worked on connecting and expressing gratitude! Be on the lookout for our jazzy rocks!!!
