Student of the Month

Rather than selecting a student of the month this year, I am having the students do it. We have talked all month about being respectful (our character trait). Friday I read The Brand New Kid by Katie Couric and then I gave the students a ballot with who they think is the most respectful in class and why. The results were more than I imagined! Here are some of the results for our winner... "She will never be mean ever and she has very good manners." "She helps me on the computer. She helped me once when I tripped." She never yells. She is calm." The rest were just as adorable. I was worried they would have trouble this early in the year. But I was very impressed! Big congratulations to our winner! She deserved it according to her peers.
