Ella shows the virtue of gratitude every single day in our classroom. Ella says “thank you” to her teachers and classmates. When a teacher ties her shoes or a friend helps her zip her coat, she always remembers to be thankful.
Eric is a hard-working student. He is kind, patient, and focused. Eric is never rude or mean-spirited with his classmates or students in other grades and is eager to read with his “reading buddy”. He works hard and has the courage to work through any challenges he faces.
In reflecting upon this month’s virtue of magnificence, it brought to mind a 1st grade student. Magnificence means to do something great and Brynn was nominated for her great actions, excellence, and generosity. She continuously goes above and beyond what is asked, volunteering daily for jobs around the classroom. She tackles challenging math problems and reading with a great amount of effort. Lastly, Brynn puts others before herself, whether it be through sharing, lining up, or taking turns.
