IKE Informed Eagles SY 23-24
Week of February 12 - 16, 2024
WE'RE LEARNING ABOUT GROWTH MINDSET AT IKE!
What Does the Power of "Yet" Have to Do With Growth Mindset?
A simple way to start changing to a growth mindset is by the use of a little word - Yet! The word yet means a realization that some things are worth waiting for, and those things take work. It's not always easy, but the power of this small word allows for success. Using the word "yet" brings hope. It ignites a "can-do" attitude and creates an encouraging environment that helps build confidence that through perseverance, anything is possible!

February is Dental Health Month!
February is National Children’s Dental Health Month. It raises awareness about the importance of good oral health in children. Cavities are the most common preventable oral health issue that affects children in the United States. Left untreated, cavities can lead to infection, pain and difficulty eating. This can negatively affect a child’s school performance.
Here are a few good healthy habits to adopt for a healthy smile. Brush your teeth two times per day with toothpaste. Toothbrushes should be replaced every 3-4 months, as frayed bristles decrease their effectiveness. Floss (clean between teeth) daily. If your child brushes their teeth unattended, take time this month to check-in on their brushing habits. Eat healthy food and limit sugary beverages and candy. Last, but not least, see your dentist at least 1 time per year.
We continue to see the stomach virus, an upper respiratory virus and pink eye circulate at IKE. The best way to prevent this is hand washing. Encourage your child to practice good hand washing. The best course of action to take if you or your child becomes ill is to keep hydrated with clear fluids, take
