Our Week Ends

The first week is all done!  We had such a good week.  We learned many procedures but all necessary to put into place for the coming year.  Everyone did such a great job!

On Thursday, we started the "Mystery Person" in our room.  Each day Mrs. Hippen draws a name from our jar of sticks.  The sticks have each person's name on them.  The only person who knows who the person is is Mrs. Hippen.  Then, Mrs. Hippen watches that person very closely.  If that person makes great choices all day long, his/her name is announced at the end of the day.  If that person doesn't make such great choices then his/her is not announced and everyone thinks about what better choices he/she could make.  When we have five mystery people who make good choices, then the following day the class earns an extra recess.  The past two days we have had two students make great choices!  Way to go!  We have three more to go and then we will work toward another reward.  It holds everyone accountable for good behavior choices throughout the day.  

Have a great weekend!  Until next time...
