We've had quite a successful first week of school. Students have been coming on time and seem excited about getting back into the swing of things. The teachers in the auditorium in the morning have planned something fun for each morning so the students will look forward to finishing breakfast quickly and joining in. Today was Film-Flick Friday! Students are anxious to begin reading and taking AR quizzes... which I am thrilled to hear! I am getting everything set up so that books can be checked out with the 2nd - 5th grade classes next week. The first graders will follow suit soon, as well.
I spoke with Mr. Roberts-the Spanish teacher, Ms. Cosnahan- the music teacher, and Mrs. Ross- the computer technician, and we were all so proud of the students' behavior during their special subject classes this week, and this gets us excited about the new year! In these special subject classes, students have been focusing on the PYP attitude of cooperation. Davis Magnet students are considered being an "international student" by demonstrating cooperation, collaboration, and leading or following as the situation demands. Check with your child each Monday to see if he or she was an international student for the past week.
Don't forget to check the Davis Magnet web page each week to find notes from the principal and classroom newsletters!
