Christmas Card Tokens
Today was my last day at one of my schools before the students go on winter break. I wanted to make a little something for all the teachers. I went to the 100 yen shop and bought candy, coloured cards, stamps and confetti cutters. All the cards were different. I took pictures of some of my favourite ones.
I also made cards for three students in a special education class and one for a sixth grader that wrote me a note last month. I drew a pokemon!
