Officer Gloria and Buckle



                                     

We also watched Officer Buckle and Gloria, a book about following rules and teamwork. We then discussed why school rules and following rules throughout our life are so important. Some students chose to act out their rules and we guessed them.

After reading Recess Queen we discussed how NOT to be a bully. We brainstormed a list of things bullies do versus what friends do. We also talked about the characters, setting and problem/solution in the story aka story elements. We really knew our stuff.
