PurposeFull People Respect & Responsibility Family Activity

Responsibility: What are some things that you’ve been wanting to do, either individually or as a family, but just haven’t done yet? Over dinner, share some of these things! Write them down to create your Family Bucket List and discuss what it will take to make that happen. Which of these can we earn through responsible actions? Which of these will require us to work together? Who is responsible to make them happen?
Respect: Agree as a family to set aside a certain time frame each day this week to unplug from devices and plug into family time. It shows Respect, for example, to not bring those phones to the dinner table. How does it feel to experience proximity and practice our manners face-to-face? When else can you unplug to show Respect?

PurposeFull People Creativity Family Activity

Plan ahead for the “I’m bored” blues and create a family fun jar that is filled with creative activities. Grab a mason jar, popsicle sticks, and permanent markers. Brainstorm with your family about simple ideas to write on the sticks that can bring some creative fun to your family. The next time someone is feeling bored, grab a stick from the jar! Creative ideas to help you get started: Build an indoor tent or fort, turn a cardboard box into something new, build a fairy garden, play “don’t touch the ground” with a balloon, build an obstacle course, play “the floor is lava” inside your house, bake a favorite recipe, fly a kite, go to a park you have never been to, look at old photographs and talk about your favorite memories.

Students staying outside 7:35-7:45 a.m.
 Beginning Tuesday, March 15th, Electa Quinney will return to the before school practices we had used prior to COVID by having students stay outside once they arrive at school in the morning. Rather than enter school, students should proceed to the playground upon arrival with their backpacks and other materials with them.  The time outside before school is very limited, only 10 minutes or less depending on their arrival, 7:35-7:45 p.m.  Although that time is short, students should come dressed for the weather which tends to be cooler in the morning (i.e.  boots, coats, hats and gloves). The first bell will ring at 7:45 AM which signals all students to line up (normal recess class lines) and enter school. Classes officially begin at 7:50 AM.  Students should plan to arrive as close to the starting time as possible, but not before 7:35 AM as there is NO adult supervision prior to 7:35 AM.  Should there be inclement weather (wind chill below 0 or thunder/lightning) their normal entrance doors will be open and students will come inside. Students are able to socialize with friends with others while they wait for the 7:45 bell. When equipment is dry/safe they will also be able to play on the equipment once the supervisors come outside to monitor.  NDLC students will still continue to come into the school as they have been per their school practices.

EQ Classroom Teachers have taught a lesson to students last week to learn the expected behaviors with this change.
