Second Week of School

Monday, August 23
We started off the week with some arts and crafts. We created butterflies out of tissue paper which represented ourselves.

Tuesday, August 24
Proffessor Kimbrell came to speak to the teacher cadets on Tuesday. He described each asignment we will turn into him throughout the year. He generously left Teacher Cadet t-shirts for everyone.

Today we presented our butterflies to the class and hung them in the "Butterfly Garden." Next we read Chrysanthemum which taught us how important our parents are in building our self-esteem and that each of us is absolutely perfect. Then we each decorated individual name tags to put above our mini bulletin boards.

On Thursday we talked about how our self-esteem is like a pot which can be filled with both good and bad things. After this we all began making "pots" to hang on our mini bulletin boards. The pots were made out of things that represent each student. Throughout the year we will fill eachothers' pots up with good things.

Today we simply finished up making our pots.
"To learn and never be filled, is wisdon; to teach and never be weary, is love."
