PBIS Winner

Our school has been implementing PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) at WT. Our rules are to be respectful, responsible, and safe in the hallways, restrooms, lunchroom, and on the playground. If your child is caught doing the right behaviors and following the rules they are given a ticket. Your child writes his/her name on the ticket and places the ticket in a classroom jar. Every Friday I draw a ticket. This child gets a small prize from the office and dumps our tickets into a fish tank. Every Monday Mrs. Beenblossom draws 2 names from the fish tank and those children receive a big prize. Today a student from our class won a big prize! Way to go, Elisha! Keep up the good work being respectful, responsible, and safe second graders!

Fifth Grade Reading Buddies

Mrs. Simon's second grade class and Mrs. Adam's fifth grade class are partnering up this year to be reading buddies. We will be meeting with our fifth grade reading buddies on Day 5 for 20 minutes. Today was our first day with our reading buddies. We had so much fun!

Stuffed Animal Day

We did it! We filled our classroom marble jar in record time - 4 days! Our class voted to have a stuffed animal day for our reward. We enjoyed having our stuffed animals at school today!

Pete the Cat

This week we are doing an author study on Eric Litwin. He writes the very popular Pete the Cat series of picture books. Today, Mrs. Simon read two Pete the Cat books, Pete the Cat Rocking in My School Shoes and Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes. We all loved the books! It's so much fun signing along with Pete the Cat and saying at the end of every Pete the Cat story "because it's all good".

After reading our Pete the Cat stories we made a quick, but an extremely adorable Pete the Cat craft. These will be displayed in the hallway at school.

Also, in case you are unfamiliar with Pete the Cat. Here are some videos for you to enjoy!
