Rachael's Challenge, Windsocks, Tallys & Nouns and much more...


We had a very  busy week discovering nouns, tally marks, the weather around us and how to spread kindness and compassion to others!  Here are a few photos of fabulous First Graders hard at work (and fun!)










 
Rachael's Challenge is a district wide kindness campaign!  We had our first whole school assembly on Friday for the kickoff of this incredible program at Bear Creek!


 
And last, but not least we had loads of fun playing a Noun Bingo Game! Here is a live action video!

  1. Very nice! I love the windsocks. I can't wait until they come home. Yes, kindness and compassion are SUPER IMPORTANT. You can be a very smart person, but without kindess and compassion, nobody will be happy around you. Be kind and compassionate and you will get kindness and compassion in return. Plus, being kind and compassionate makes you happy anyway. :-)

    By the way, this my ||| post (those are tickmarks) and I *finally* beat Mrs. Wooley! She *always* comments before I do. Ha! ;-)

    You kids are doing great! Keep up the great work!

  2. Love the comments and thank you!!! You said exactly what I always say -- "being kind to others not only makes them feel good but makes your own heart feet good too!" - WIN-WIN! And... yes you did beat Ms. Wooley!
