Today we had two students earn RARE Awards. The first was a Kindergarten students who earned her award for being Accountable. She does all of her work on time and always turns in her Reading Log. The second student is a 3rd grade student. He earned his award for being thoughtful of his peers. He has now earned all 4 of the RARE Awards!
Last week we had 2 students earn RARE Awards and I didn't get them online or on our RARE board before I left for State Wrestling. I don't want to miss these two. The first was a second grade student who earned a RARE Award for being Empathetic. He told a student who did well on his Xtramath practice that he did a great job. He was very supportive of his classmate. The other RARE Award went to a 4th grade girl for being honest and turning in the money she found to a teacher. Her award was for being Responsible.
