Kindness Counts

Each Thursday draw two names from our Kindness Counts Cow to see who will be able to wear his/her favorite shirt on Friday! I drew 4 this week because we weren't able to draw any last week. Congratulations to these sweet kids! 

COMPLIMENTS

We try so very hard to get compliments from other teachers. Each time we receive a compliment, we move the fox clip to the next letter. When it gets to the last letter we get to have a compliment party! We get a treat and extra recess! Today we had extra recess and popcicles!

Creative Writing

We used Play-Doh to spark our interest in writing on Friday. The students had to make a creation out of the Play-Doh. We had so much fun doing this!!! Afterwards they had to write a main idea, 3 details, and a closing sentence about their creations!
