Pajama Party Friday

It's finally our DOJO reward party!!
Pajama Day is here!!
Rayyan was one of the first students to get to work bright and early Friday morning.
Sometimes it's hard to settle in when there is excitement in the air and special activities….
but not for Team Tipton!!
They all were super serious students before the fun movie began.

Elfie was ready for Pajama Day wearing his very own hand-made pjs!
He is watching over our class.
As a matter of fact, our DOJOs have been set to zero after the party and Elfie has
already informed Ms. Tipton who should start off with DOJOs tomorrow morning.  I am not certain how many
each student as earned…so take a quick peek!!

Nadeer and Max spent pajama day together.  It was a great day for both of them!!
I wonder who will have Max tomorrow????

The students are all cozy on the floor and ready for Charlotte's Web!

                                       Thanks again to Ethan for loaning his movie to us!!

We all enjoyed the movie.
If your student told you I cried…it's true!!
I am an animal lover and was so worried about Wilbur in the
beginning and sad about Charlotte in the end!

There was an extra incentive for the students to earn DOJOs.
I told them the top five people would get a bonus!
Maya, Sydney, Jake, Ethan, and Mimi had the MOST DOJOs of the entire class.
They earned a Hershey Kiss candy AND something very special.
I told the students they were already important to me, just like my own 19 year old daughter.
I found holiday books that she had gotten in first grade.  Each of the top five DOJO students got
to select one of her books to take home.
All of your children are VERY special to me.
Thank you for sharing them!!
