7 Habits
This week our
school embarked on a big journey of introducing our kiddos to The 7 Habits! You
may recognize them from the book The 7
Habits of Happy Kids by Sean Covey. These are great habits and principles
that can used for kids and adults and will only set up our kiddos for lifelong
success! I sent home some info about their upcoming lessons so you can
discuss with your kiddos what they are learning! Have a great weekend!
Family Photo
I would love to have every student
bring a small family photo to display in our classroom. Feel free to send me one electronically, and
I will print it off for you! This will help your kiddo feel more at home, and I
know they will be super excited to show off their family.
