Birthday Book Club
Hello from the Silver Springs Library. Are you interested in supporting our library by purchasing a birthday book for your student?
By donating $18, new books will be purchased for our library. During the student’s birthday month, an email will be sent to you (K thru 2) or your student (3 thru 5), containing a list of books to choose from. A sticker thanking you for your donation and recognizing your student's birthday will be placed in the book, the book will be checked out to your student and delivered to their classroom teacher.
For virtual students, the book will be delivered to your student’s teacher to be picked up the next time they distribute materials.
To sign up for the Birthday Book Club, please click on the following link: https://northvilleschools.revtrak.net/elementary-schools/#/v/2020-2021-silver-springs-birthday-book-club
Please note a 3.5% service fee will be applied.

Leader in Me - Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind
This week’s Habit: Habit 2 Begin With the End in Mind -
"I have a plan"
What this means: Have a mission, a clear sense of where you want to go. Think about the end first- how are you going to get there?
“I plan ahead and set goals.”
“I do things that have meaning and make a difference”
“I am important part of my classroom.”
“I look for ways to be a good citizen.”
Ways we can practice at home: Family Mission Statement Activity
How can I do this in my life?
1. Write down your goals. It is said that "A goal not written is only a wish.”
2. Lay out your clothes for tomorrow the night before.
3. Write down 3 goals you want to accomplish.
