HAVE YOU FILLED YOUR BUCKET TODAY?
Angelica came last Friday. She taught us about the circle of responsibilities. What is in the circle is up to us such as do your homework, prepare your backpack, bring back papers..., what is outside the circle, we cannot change, such as a schedule, the way other students are.... The activities aimed to make students aware of their responsibilities and also accepting others the way they are. We had fun and I know we learned a lot from her. THANK YOU, ANGELICA AND THANK YOU MRS. LEAL.
