Mrs. Jensen’s class has been practicing Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind and Habit 6: Synergize! The students set a goal to fill their smiley face jar, knowing the end goal was a trip to the Croc Cave! They showed great leadership and worked together to reach their goal, then celebrated with some fun in the Croc Cave!

Wednesday’s theme for Red Ribbon Week was Community Connection. Students wore hats or outfits that represented a community hero or a job that they wanted to do when they are grown. At lunch, officers from Springville PD came to interact with students. One officer even brought his K-9 companion. Students played basketball, football and had running races with the officers. Did you know that Officer Monney was once a Cherry Creek Croc? Students presented thank you notes to the Officers. Thanks to the Officers for living Habit #4: Think Win-Win and Habit 8: Find Your Voice and Inspire Others to Find Theirs

We saw double on Tuesday’s Red Ribbon Week. Tuesday was Twin day, finding your matching piece by pairing up with a friend and dressing alike. During lunch recess, Crocs Communicate by rolling some dice and creating a story using the pictures on the dice. What a fun way to chat with a friend!

On Friday, we had our Victory Assembly for October. The Top Crocs and Leaders of the Month were honored, progress on our two WIGS were announced and some students participated in a Corny game. Keep reading nightly and living the 7 Habits at school, so we can reach our WIGS-Wildly Important Goals. And striving to be a Top Croc and a Leader helps everyone to have a good experience at Cherry Creek.
