COURAGE is being brave when facing fear or difficulty. It is always important to not let worry keep us from trying
something new. This week, your challenge is to think of three things you could do this summer that you have always wanted to do. Pick one and give it a try.

Mrs. Rasberry’s class wrapped up their volume unit with a creative twist—building animals out of boxes and calculating their volume. The classroom became a zoo where students, other classes, and even parents toured the exhibits and practiced measuring volume.

Our Mental Health theme is COURAGE -being brave when facing fear or difficulty. Quote of the week from John Wayne, “Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway.” It is OK to be scared. But do not let that fear keep you from trying new things.
