It’s time to celebrate!

smile clipartThis class is going places that no other class has ever gone! Tomorrow, February 10, we will celebrate having been recognized forty times for outstanding behavior! This is a REALLY big deal!

We brainstormed ideas of how to celebrate. They came fast and furious. I have to admit, the list of possibilities was pretty impressive.

After the votes were tallied, the winners were a pizza lunch, extra reading time, blanket forts, and electronics/games time. 

So…

  • I will provide two slices of pizza from Jet’s and Hawaiian Punch for each person. Students are welcome to supplement as desired.
  • We will build blanket forts and read in them. Flashlights might be helpful…and fun!
  • We will also have time for electronics/games. Please talk with your child about appropriate electronics to bring and games to play.  

We’re looking forward to a fun time of celebrating!

Celebration Friday

imgresIt’s time to celebrate respectful and responsible behavior by the students in our classroom!  They have all been working hard and have been recognized 30 times for outstanding behavior in the lunchroom, hallway, art, music, P.E., STEAM, and our classroom!

The specialist teachers have recently “upped the game” and are expecting more from the students.  In order to earn an outstanding, they must work quietly, listen/follow directions, clean up, work together, and include others…and they are responding!

So, one of the ways we are planning to celebrate is to have an electronics and/or game day tomorrow, December 2.  Please talk with your child about appropriate electronics to bring and games to play.  We’re looking forward to a fun time of celebrating!

M-STEP Celebration!

Dear Parents,celebration-clipart-dancing-people

M-STEP is in the books!  I would like you to know that the students in our classroom did an amazing job.  Their commitment to excellence is definitely worthy of celebrating.  They were incredibly focused and diligent in their problem solving! I can’t say enough good about what I saw over the past two weeks! 🙂  Thanks for all that you did to help set your child up for success.

So, tomorrow we are planning to celebrate with a pizza lunch!  I will be providing two slices of pizza from Jet’s and Hawaiian Punch for each person.  They are welcome to supplement as desired.
 
Thanks again!
Mr. K
