More pictures from 2nd quarter AR Christmas party.
We had Christmas party for our 2nd quarter AR reward. There were 27 kids that earned the reward this quarter. They got to decorate cookies, drink hot chocolate, make bracelets, ornaments, gingerbread houses, and do some Christmas crafts. We also had dance competitions, played musical chairs and ate pizza. Thank you to Canoak, Rowdy's and Simple Traditins by Joey and Roger for your donations!
We had AR store this week for kids to spend points on prizes. Two kids decided to buy coupons to wrap a teacher of their choice. Jackson chose his mom, Mrs. Lanham, and Amelia chose her teacher, Mrs. Barton. We went to the cafeteria to watch them be wrapped before parties.
Other students spent points on being Mrs. Sandy's or Dr. Baucom's helpers, telling a joke over the intercom, spending free time with Mrs. LaPlant and Mrs. Sam, or having "stinky feet" (no shoes) during class. We also had lots of toys to choose from. We will do AR store again at the end of the year.
Second grade held their second quarter auction today for their good behavior and academic performance in Mrs. Lanham's classroom. Students are awarded eagle dollars weekly and save them for their auction. All together the class spent $1,467 dollars on items. Keep up the good work second grade!
