We need to brainstorm ideas for how we are going to make our school's environment "A Leader in Me" envirnoment. Let's throw out ideas and expectations for the beginning of school.
I would like to see the bulletin boards designed with the seven habits in mind - at least at the beginning of the year. I would love for third grade to do the hamburger rubric - you know it is one of my favorite things.
Amanda and I discussed an idea for morning duty. I would love to see the kids up/active. If we put in kid friendly exercise videos, then they could start they day off in a positive way and be ready to work by the time they make it to class. There are tons to choose from. I am going to check out some from the public library and preview them. I checked half.com and we can purchase them from $3.00 up. It would be cost effective and something that would not have to be created.
I love the idea about getting the kids moving 1st thing...sharpening the saw. Today, Alexis even mentioned doing the broadcast live in the gym each morning. Personally, I LOVE that idea, then when the kids come to class, we can greet each one and get started.
Do we want the first bulletin boards he 7 habits in August? That would only be for 2 weeks?? Or should we make sure all september bulletin boards are 7 habits?
We also need to work on getting pictures of all the leaders and having them displayed.
What about a few big signs that say things like "Leadership" and/or "Great Happens Here"...
I think we need to work out the idea for the pep rally.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE the broadcast live idea!! That would be amazing!! I really think we could make that happen. Alexis, are you willing to "be the host?"
