May 7, 2018: Mmmm, Monday! A little Continental Breakfast
Mmmm, Monday! How often do we get excited about starting our week? Hopefully, some yummy breakfast items provided by your PTA – coffee, muffins, scones – will ease Foothill Staff into their day.
May 8, 2018: Tremendously Thankful Tuesday + a Chocolate Buffet
PARTICIPATE #1: Chances are your teacher has taught you the READ, WRITE, DRAW technique to solve all sorts of problems (RWD). For today, choose how you’d like to share your message of thanks. Write a card, note or letter, draw a picture, or read the person you are honoring a poem you’ve written or a passage that captures how you feel. Another idea is to write kind chalk messages on the blacktop, or better still, say thank you face-to-face.
See if you can reach out to 3 or more staff members during the week! Above all, have fun!
PARTICIPATE #2: Let’s sweeten the day for Foothill’s wonderful staff and teachers! Feel free to bring a chocolate or other sweet treat of your choice (such as bars, brownies, cookies, truffles, etc.) to the Multipurpose Room (MPR) this morning (8:20-8:45 am) where volunteers will be waiting to deliver it to the staff room. THANK YOU!
*Volunteers are welcome to help organize all the goodies and transfer them to the Staff Room. Please join in!
May 9, 2018: Annual Staff Appreciation Luncheon + It’s a Wonderful World, Wednesday
Please SIGN UP to donate a dish or volunteer at the LUNCHEON: https://docs.google.com/
PARTICIPATE: MAKE COMPLIMENT CARDS
-
Have your child choose a shape (e.g., a heart, cloud, circle, square, etc.).
-
Cut out this shape to approximately the size of a hand and write a compliment on it. This can be one or more words (e.g., THE BEST, INSPIRING, DEDICATED, YOU MAKE SCHOOL FUN, THANK YOU, etc.).
-
Tape the shape to your classroom door.
-
Why not add a second to another door around campus? Room 2, Room 7, the computer lab, the library, Maker Space, the main office, etc. are a few ideas.
-
Have fun spreading smiles!
May 10, 2018: From the Heart Thursday
There are still 2 days in which to shower our Fabulous Foothill Family with the gratitude we feel for their dedication, hard work, and care that they continuously provide to our community.
PARTICIPATE: Please continue to write thank you notes and compliment cards that will brighten someone’s day. Draw a picture, write a poem – send a message from the heart!
Parents, your words also matter! We have the best elementary school around. Please consider penning a note or Compliment Card as well! THANK YOU!
May 11, 2018: Fun Friday!
Let’s finish out the week with a fun draw for special prizes for all of Foothill’s wonderful staff.
THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH!
