Great Expectations

Alex's school is a Great Expectations school.  They have learned expectations such as "We will value one another as unique and special individuals", "We will use good manners saying please, thank you, and excuse me", "We will not laugh at or make fun of another's mistakes, use sarcasm or put downs, and we will cheer each other to success."  They say these each morning in their classroom and have great hand motions/sign language that goes with them.  They also say them at the Rise and Shine that they have on Monday mornings as a whole school.

Alex's teacher chose him to recite the expectations at the assembly.  He was supposed to do 1-4 and another student was supposed to do 5-8.  I guess Alex didn't know to stop and he just kept on going.  The other student just did them with Alex.  It was fun to see him on the stage speaking in the microphone.  It was a proud mama moment!
