Team Mindcrafters Daily Update - 11-10-14

Parents, 

Soul Shoppe.  Joseph Savage from Soul Shoppe visited us today to talk about ways we can support each other as allies in our school.  His messages focus on conflict resolution and communicating with others about our feelings.  We would encourage you to talk to your child about some of these ideas that we discussed such as  leaking vs. emptying your emotional balloon, using the "I" Message to tell a person what you need, and how to resolve conflicts with the "Clean-up."

Veteran's Day.  A letter went home last week looking for names of individuals in the community (friends, family, neighbors) who have served in the military.  We would like to honor them in a special way here at school tomorrow.  Please see this letter for more information.

Reminders:
  • Math Challenge.  Master Multiplication by Midterm! (November 25)
  • Wednesday, November 12 the Maumee Chipotle -  Eat out to support WPA.
