The team at the top of the mountain didn't fall there!

Hard work at school, at home, or in sports are the key to getting to the top! It takes a lot of practice to get good at anything, and to be the best at something, takes even more hard work. For young students, learning good study habits and being responsible when it comes to finishing your homework and classroom assignments are keys to success. As the first semester comes to a close, I'm impressed by the positive attittude the children in The Big Dog Room have shown towards learning. They are all becoming actively engaged in classroom discussions, no matter what the subject. It's great when they read something about science or history and ask questions about where they can find out more information regarding the topic.
We still have a lot of work to do in 4th Grade, but I know they'll come back in January and  be excited about the challenges the new year will bring.
