2nd Grade
The second grades had a sweet Valentine's Day exchanging Valentine cards and playing Valentine Bingo together in our pod.
Second grade also celebrated the 100th day of Tawanka. Mrs. Hanna's class made 100 bags. They filled them with 100 items and then shared their collections with the class. Students organized and counted the items in various ways to make 100. They then played a 100 items Memory game along with other "100"related math games.
3rd Grade
The Third Graders have been working hard in math learning time and money. They continued working with rocks and minerals in their science unit as well. For the month of February, the team will be participating in the Kindness Challenge to celebrate Random Act of Kindness Month at Tawanka. The students read the book, Kindness is Cooler, Mrs. Ruler by Margery Cuyler, and were challenged to perform 10 acts of kindness by the end of the month. They will be using hearts to keep track of each act of kindness they perform on a chart in their classroom.

Principal's 200 Club
Tawanka Tokens and Congratulatory Telephone Calls Home have continued to highlight the Positive Behaviors of the remarkable boys and girls at Tawanka Elementary School. Our principal, our teachers, our staff and other adults who watch over the children are on the look-out for students who are RESPECTFUL, RESPONSIBLE, and SAFE throughout the school day. This could be at any time: in their classrooms, the cafeteria, the bathrooms, assemblies, the playground and in the hallways. It’s a difficult task, because so many students are doing the right thing and we are limited on the number given out each week! Not everyone will have received a Tawanka Token sticker yet, but the students excellent behavior is appreciated.
Pick-a-Chip Friday is an exciting event held each week for students currently in the Principal’s 200 Club Bulletin Board. It’s a random chance for students to earn extra treats! When a row on the board is filled, there’s another opportunity for a special drawing.
Please keep encouraging your child to be an Empowered Tawanka Eagle and to keep the our school behavior flying high! In fact, our mascot soared in last week making a big debut. We are all proud of our Tawanka Team Spirit!
