Well, school's been out for a wk now so thought I should get around to doing our final post! LOL! We sent a Get Well card to my sis-in-law's mother & emptied recycle bins for K & 1st grades the last 2 1/2 days of school. The kids did the announcements the last day of school & Mrs. Davis read the announcement of all the AOKs done this year. She was so complimentary of them & I know it made them feel good! :) They got a surprise pizza party for their efforts from the parents & myself-they were proud of themselves & excited. I think most of them were really surprised! I was proud as well! This project turned out EXACTLY the way I imagined: We reached our goal 11 x's over & the kids realized you could do AOKs w/o spending any money AND the most important part...they started to think of AOKs themselves! I truly hope that this is a life characteristic that will ALWAYS stay with them-think about what a better place the world would be if it did! :) My students challenged our whole school to try to do at least one AOK per wk this summer. Mady & I have made that our goal as well & we're well on our way! :) I'm excited about continuing this project next year & seeing how we grow in even more ways! :)
