Weekly update for the week of 02-12

Reminders:
o   Throw kindness like confetti! Next week we will be celebrating one of our favorite weeks of the year, Random Acts of Kindness Week!  See below the list of spirit days but keep in mind that the week goes beyond that.  We encourage all students to incorporate random acts of kindness with the spirit days. For example, on Hawaiian day we will be having our students say “Aloha” to someone new.  You never know how far an acknowledgement or “hello” will travel.
Random Acts of Kindness Week Spirit Themes:
o   Monday- PJs
o   Tuesday- Tie-dye
o   Wednesday- Wear red and pink
o   Thursday- Hawaiian wear
o   Friday- Crazy hair

o   The students are earning Class Dojo points for a craft party as we will be doing “melty beads” as the kids call it. I look forward to the party after our hard work!
o   On February 14th we will be reflecting on the love and friendship between us all in our reading and writing. The day will end with a celebration and exchange of Valentines. What fun!
o   February is our month to show INTEGRITY!  This valued moral assists with academic achievement but I believe goes well beyond that.  Students will intrinsically feel the rewards of doing what is right with honest intent.  In the hallway, during testing, we conversing with friends as well as after school when study work at home needs to be done.  Please take a moment to talk about having integrity with your child.  I look forward to seeing these actions take place here at school.  If you have any stories of students showing INTEGRITY at home share them with me on Class Dojo!
o   Our annual Marshall Science Fair is in February.  All students 3-5 will have a project to display, every year we are blown away with their discoveries.  First grade will also have a chance to get involved as we complete a class project.  I am thinking we will be experimenting with weather or rocks.  Details to follow.
o   Snacks next week will be Abby, Ari and Azuul. Thanks!
