During the month of October, we are teaching about Habit #2: Begin with the End in Mind. This means to think about how you would like something to turn out before you get started. Reading a recipe before cooking or looking at a map before leaving on a trip is beginning with the end in mind. For young children, a good example of that is a jigsaw puzzle. Before doing a puzzle, they look at the cover of the box. They start with the end in mind.

Habit 2 means to have a plan. I plan ahead and set goals. I do things that have meaning and make a difference. I am an important part of my classroom and contribute to my school's mission and vision. I look for ways to be a good citizen.

We are happy to share that we are offering a Girl Scouts Troop for interested Kindergartners. Our goal is to make the meetings fun! engaging & educational. We plan to meet a couple of times a month as schedules allow.

The Troop (#1304) will include Kindergartners from both Hanawalt and Bergman Academy. We will have our first meeting this month - if you are interested in joining, please contact Katie Gibson Overby at katie@gibsonoverby.com. Thank you!
