DARE Graduation

Good Afternoon,
       I am posting two photos in our Blog today. One photo is a class picture from our DARE graduation on Friday. Congratulations to Connor O'Malley for delivering an amazing speech. Not only was the content on point, but the delivery (animated and with lots of eye contact) was spectacular.  Also, thank you to Thomas Seedhom for calling off our class roster as the DARE diplomas were being given out.  The DARE song was beautifully orchestrated! Over all it was a terrific event. Thank you Detective Beck for teaching the children the DARE program so well.

      
       The second photo is from our Thursday book talk. I had 11 young ladies read Wish Tree, a book written by Katherine Applegate and join me for a book discussion. We enjoyed talking about the book during recess and lunch, as well as Clementines and cookies. I appreciate their insight and willingness to give up recess to sit with me and talk about a book. 

     
       PLAY REHEARSAL REMINDER:  Tuesday is play rehearsal day. Children should be brought to school by 7:45am.  Last week at 7:45am, there were 9 children missing. We had children arrive as late as 7:55am. It may not seem like a lot of time, but when we only have until 9:10am, every minute counts.

Thank you and enjoy the holiday tomorrow!                Lester Betor and Class
