We had our first school-wide assembly today. It was our kick off for PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) to try to encourage all students to display Tenney R.O.C.K.S. Behavior. ROCKS is an acroynm that stands for Respect, Ownership, Cooperation, Kindness, and Safety. Students can earn blue slips for displaying Tenney ROCKS behavior and can earn Show What You Know tickets for showing academic hard work and perseverance. Every student in our room has earned at least one blue slip this year -- many have earned a lot! Please ask your child about it! It was a lot of fun and the Tenney Tiger made an appearance :)
Some very important reminders for the week ahead:
- No School on Monday for Columbus Day
- Please check your child's home-school folder for their Friday journal. We did not have a ton of time to write today, but they all should have written you a quick letter about their week. They LOVE when you write them a note back!!
- Picture Day is Thursday, October 15th, 2015. Picture order forms should have made it home in your child's backpack today. Please let me know if you did not receive it and I will make sure one gets home on Tuesday.
- There is a PTO meeting on Thursday, October 15th in the evening. I hope you can attend!
- Yankee Candle Fundraising forms are due back by Friday, October 16th. Please consider supporting the PTO with this fundraiser, and maybe get a little winter holiday shopping done early. I am so thankful for the support the PTO gives us teachers each year!
- Progress Reports come home next Friday, October 16th. Please be on the lookout for those.
- The Annual Tenney Monster Bash (put on by the above mentioned fabulous PTO!) will be on Friday, October 23rd. Mark your calendars! I am planning to attend and I hope you can, too!
As always, if you have any questions, concerns, or thoughts please send me an e-mail. I hope you have a wonderful long weekend!
Smiles,
Ms. Petzold
