November 9, 2012 Dear Parents/Guardians, We hope you will join us in our efforts to strengthen our learning community through our PALS program. Our program highlights and reinforces qualities and characteristics of productive citizens. Positive Actions Lead to Success We start each day with the school pledge to remind everyone what it means to be a PAL. Throughout the year we will highlight traits through “Classroom Buddy” activities. During these times, students will have the opportunity to encourage each other to display positive qualities. Each month we will focus on one or two of the following life skills: Responsibility, Cooperation, Problem Solving, Friendship, Integrity, Curiosity, Organization, Caring, Patience, Effort, Pride, Sense of Humor, Perseverance, and Initiative. In order to recognize their efforts as good citizens, “PALS” will be given to those who display positive qualities during the school year. Each Friday, students are recognized school wide on our morning broadcast with special honors given for cafeteria behavior (class eagle) and bus behavior (Bus Wristbands). The PAL winners for the week receive book bag tags labeled with the trait they demonstrated. “PALS” updates continue to be sent home through classroom newsletters and Friday Flyers. We have also been learning and following common school procedures this year. Throughout the year we will have our “Paling Around” events. During this time we celebrate all of the positive behavior by letting the students participate in special activities. We also use this time to re-teach and reinforce procedures with students who receive multiple warnings and need reminders to follow school expectations. On Tuesday, November 20 th we will have our first all-school celebration that focuses on what it takes to be a responsible Prairieview citizen. As parents, you are your children’s most important teacher. Here are some activities you can do to support our program, and more importantly your child: Remember, children learn by our actions; model how you want your child to behave. Share stories from your childhood that relate to the featured components of citizenship we are studying at school. For example, you might want to describe a time when you were proud of an accomplishment or a time when being patient was difficult, but worth it. Praise your child for the positive things he or she does. When there are problems, help your child understand the consequences of his or her actions. Thank you for your support!

• Recuerde, los niños aprenden por nuestras acciones; modelo de cómo desea que su hijo se comporte.

The PV PTO would l ike to invite you to our

FREE Family Movie Night

Where: PV Multi Purpose Room

When: Friday, November 9th Door and Concession Stand @ 6:00 PM

Movie Starts @ 6:30 PM

Wear your pj’s and bring your blankets and pillows too! You are welcome to bring

your own snacks/dinner. Concessions will have baked goods, drinks, and popcorn.

Prices vary from $0.50 to a $1.00 The goal of our PTO Movie Night is to provide a fun, school-appropriate evening for our students and their families. We try and find the newest movies that will be most appealing to the majority of our students. For this event we have

chosen Dr. Suess’ The Lorax, which has a rating of PG. It is our belief that parents are the best judge of the content of movies they feel are appropriate for their family as it would be impossible for the PTO or staff to know the individual preferences, fears, or interests of each of the students. We hope you will be able to join us, but understand if for any

reason you choose not to attend. A complete review of the movie can be found at parentpreviews.com

Home Cool Tool:

Listening quietly to others Purpose of the lesson? Why it is important: 1. Listening to others shows respect to the person who is talking. 2. Listening helps us learn. 3. A good friend listens. Teaching Examples: The following presents situations that your child might find himself in. Use these examples to discuss with your child how to make good decisions when listening to others. Your child’s new soccer coach is talking about the rules of soccer. Your child has played before and thinks he/she knows all of the rules. Your child finds it boring and would rather think about something else. Talk about why listening to the coach is important (ex. as you get older the rules might change, different coaches might have different expectations, the coach might ask questions afterward). Talk about what consequences could occur from not listening. A family member is helping your child with math homework. The family member is explaining how to carry numbers when adding two columns. Your child was taught a different way to do it in school, and instead of listening to the family member your child interrupted and said, “that’s not the way we learned how to do it.” Ask your child if this was the appropriate way to respond. Discuss the fact that if your child needed help maybe listening to another way to do it would help him/her to learn. If your child says that it has to be done a specific way talk about how you can learn more then one way to do something and it might make it easier to understand one way when you know of another. You are driving your children (or your child and a friend) to the library. One of your children (or your child’s friend) is talking about something that happened at school. Your other child interrupts to talk about something that he/she thinks is much more important. Discuss the importance of listening to another and letting them finish before adding information or changing the subject of conversation. Ask your child if people should listen when he/she speaks. Ask how it feels when not listened to. Kid Activities/Role Plays: 1.Practice listening. Tell your child a story and have him/her paraphrase the story back to you. Let your child tell you a story and paraphrase it back to your child. 2.Discuss how a person can show another that they are listening to them (making eye contact, nodding, responding, etc.). 3.List ways in which listening helps us to learn, and to be safe. Follow-up/Reinforcement Activities: 1. Before telling your child something that is important let them know so by saying something to the effect of “ It is very important that you listen.”

1. Let your child know that you appreciate being listen *Lesson Courtesy of Longfellow School

Fall Fundraiser – HOME RUN FOR EDUCATION Proceeds totaled $5,515

Holy Cow – What a Success!!

On September 15th

the Foundation hosted its first co-ed softball tournament. Eight teams played hard, but only one team could win. And that team was “Hit for Brains”. They won the final heat against Frederick School!s team – to win the tournament with a score of 9-4. The registration fee for each team was $400.The Heritage Neighborhood Team, one of the eight, really stepped up and contributed a total of $869 dollars. Way to go Heritage!!! Guess that!s the team to beat next year.

Proceeds from the tournament will go towards:

• Academic Enrichment Scholarship Fund for participation in Science Olympiad and Scholastic Bowl

• Classroom Mini-Grants • D46 Destination ImagiNation

• 5th

Grade Hovercraft Project

Team “Hit for Brains” has already pledged to compete next year. A special thanks goes to:

• BBQ !d Productions • The Vine

• Huntington Learning Center

• SomerCor 504, Inc • Chic Martin Signature Homes

Hit for Brains is the team to beat next

Our Board of Directors is very excited to announce a new initiative for the 2012-2013 school year. In addition to continuing our support of D46 Destination ImagiNation, we are developing an Academic Enrichment Scholarship Fund for D46 Families to help support family costs of student participation in Science Olympiad and Scholastic Bowl. Scholarship applications are now available and can be accessed from the Science Olympiad or Scholastic Bowl coach at your child's school.

The Foundation is always looking for active members who can contribute skills that range from communications to fundraising to finance. We also are in need of general members who are looking for a low level of commitment. These volunteers might support events by taking posters & flyers to local businesses and working at events. We are also looking for new board members who can help lead our organization to accomplish its mission to enhance and enrich the educational experience beyond the scope of the district's budget. Those interested in learning more about the Board of Directors are welcome to sit in on a board meeting. Contact us at [email protected] if you'd like to take an active role and inspire learning in D46!

If you aren!t already receiving email notifications directly from the Foundation, please send a message to [email protected] requesting to be added to our distribution list.

Enjoy a wonderful holiday season!

Foundation Website and Library

Please check out our web site at www.d46foundation.org. The Educational Resources page is growing! There you will find links to thought provoking articles on educational issues as well as some incredibly innovative sites for families to explore and learn.

HoverCraft Project

In years past, a fraction of fifth grade students have participated in an exciting Hovercraft Project. This year, the staff at Frederick set a goal to expand the project, offering it to all fifth grade students and the Foundation agreed to provide supplemental financial support to offset costs incurred by the district and the taxpayers.

The D46 Hovercraft Project is an innovative project that is facilitated by Frederick teachers and Matthew Chase of Chase Business Services. The project involves students constructing hovercrafts while applying math, science, art, writing, and team building concepts. These hovercrafts are powered by electric leaf blowers that inflate a skirt, allowing the craft to hover.

The Hovercraft Project places students in a real world scenario in which they are part of a company developing and marketing a product. They test different skirt materials, determine how to best work as a team, and decide how to market the hovercraft. Each group of 6-8 students is led by a team leader (a student) and all team leaders report to a teacher titled the "Project Manager." At the end of two days, students have tested, developed, and readied their version of the hovercraft for market.

Corporate & Small Business Sponsors

If you know of a business that might be interested in helping the Foundation achieve its goals, please let us know. Donations of any size are welcome!
