There were a variety of things honoring our Veterans at our Veteran's Day program on Friday. We sang songs, listened to 4th graders read poetry they had written, saw a video, and honored our guests with a certificate and applause. It was a great way to start our Friday morning!
We have three more days of Chinese left in the next two weeks. Check out what we learned last week! Watch the video in the "Learning a Chinese Song" blog post from November 6th.
Unity Day is on Monday. Wear orange to celebrate kindness and understanding. This would be a perfect day to wear your orange "end bullying" T-shirt if you had ordered one!
As part of the PBIS (positive behavioral interventions and supports) team, I will be attending a training workshop on the 12th and 13th this week.
