April- The character word for April will be Self- Discipline/ Self Control. In April, students in K-3, will be discussing careers that they might be interested in. We will be reading When I Grow Up by AL Yankovic. We will be talking about our parents job and what we want to be when we grow up and what types of schooling we will have to go to. . In grades 4-5 , we will be talking about test taking strategies and how to be prepared for our test that we will be taking throughout the month. We will also be talking about ways to resist peer pressure and controlling our own behaviors and not following the rest of our friends. 6th grade will have the opportunity to talk with the junior high counselor, Angie Turner, we will be talking about what to expect at the Junior High and getting our schedules prepared for the next year. Please take some time to discuss these things with your students to help reinforce the lessons.
