Thankful for Books Day!

Tuesday, November 26th is going to be "Thankful for Books" day at General Mitchell! So, here is a list of the activities planned:

1)Each class will have one Mitchell staff member come in and read to their class for 15 to 30 minutes. 

2) There will be "Classroom Buddy Read" with another class in the school and our class will be reading with Ms. Vasta's class from 2:15-2:45 pm

3) Students will have cookies and milk to enjoy while they read. I want to thank Mrs. Schmidt, Mrs. Chappelle, and Mrs. Figueroa for supplying the treats. 

4) Additionally, the kids can wear their pajamas all day!

NOTE: if any parents would like to read a book to the class, just let me know. We would love to have you be part of the day.

This will be so much fun! What a great way to celebrate the start of our Thanksgiving break!

Ambassador Awards

At the Friday FISH Meeting, we have started awarding a class ambassador. The ambassador is picked based on how often they showed positive FISH behavior (make someone's day, be there, choose your attitude, and play) that week. With my class, that was a very hard decision because we have so many ambassador in our class. This week was Kassidy from our class. Also, Ms. Blank, the librarian, picked Peyton as her class ambassador for the week. Congratulations to both of them!!!
