Happy Friday~
Happy Friday!
Thank you for making Open House full and successful!
- We had a huge turn out.
- Students sparkled as they shared their learning experiences with you.
- Taco man was good.
- The Gary Center had great free Lion's Market.
- The Raffle prize winners were all Las Positas families~
We appreciate your support and ask that you continue to support our teachers by making sure that your child is in class on time and here every day, as long as they are healthy.
This month we continue to focus on the IB Learner Profile of being Open - Minded.
The IB Learner Profile aims to develop students who are open-minded. Students who are open-minded understand and appreciate their own cultures and personal histories, and are open to the perspectives, values and traditions of other individuals and communities. They are accustomed to seeking and evaluating a range of points of view, and are willing to grow from the experience.

Catch your child being a "open - minded" and tweet it out @laspositaslions or send them for me to share.
Have a great weekend~
Story Time
STORY TIME
Molly Lou Melon is short and clumsy, has buck teeth, and has a voice that sounds like a bullfrog being squeezed by a boa constrictor. She doesn't mind. Her grandmother has always told her to walk proud, smile big, and sing loud, and she takes that advice to heart. But then Molly Lou has to start in a new school. Molly Lou Melon has to deal with bullies. Leave it to Molly Lou to transform all her 'faults' into marvelous talents..
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR STAND TALL, MOLLY LOU MELON
- How would you feel if you were being bullied like Molly Lou Melon?
- What would you do if you saw someone else being treated like that?
- How do you think Molly Lou Melon felt when the other children supported her?
- How did Ronald Durkin change throughout the story? What caused this change?
- Why does being open-minded matter?
