TEAMWORK BEADS

Responsibility is a character trait that develops over time.  It is 
important to help children to realize that they are not only individuals but 
also members of many groups - friends, the class, their families, the 
community.For any group to "work", each member has a responsibility to 
cooperate with other members to achieve a common goal. The class has daily 
opportunities to "earn" beads.  For example: as the class walks to and from 
their special, the can earn two beads.  When the class has earned all the 
beads, they have earned a reward. Our teamwork parties have included: ice 
cream, pizza, McDonald's Happy Meals,or a movie with popcorn! We are 
open for more creative and exciting suggestions this year!

KEEP SMILING BOARD

Independent responsibility is just as important as working as a team. The 
idea is to "Keep Smiling" for the day by being responsible and dependable 
for our own behavior.

THE TREASURE BOX

The treasure box includes: stickers, toys, homework passes, and ice cream in 
the cafeteria, $0.50 for school store, pencils, erasers, book marks, candy, 
and a few surprises!!!!!

CHARACTER EDUCATION

Our class will be discussing six blocks of character education: 
trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship.
This fall, we will integrating some activities/scenarios to guide the 
students to think critically and become citizens that are active participants 
within their educational community.

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS/CAUGHT BEING GOOD COINS

Each time a student is caught performing a random act of kindness, he or she 
will be rewarded a “Caught Being Good” coin.

MAGIC MOMENTS

You know what they are...when something UNBELIEVABLE happens and you are 
speechless....a reward must be given from the "Magic Moment Lunchbox!"

HOMEWORK PASSES

These passes may not be used for study guides, pretests, long term 
assignments, or any concept that the student needs reinforcement with. The 
student must hand in the pass the day s/he wishes to redeem it. At times, 
there will be an assignment where the homework pass is NOT redeemable. These 
assignments will be announced to the student in advance.

Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions?
