Rachel and all of her awards!

Awards Day was held on the last day of school for K-6th Grade. The girls earned several awards. I guess this is my blog, so I am going to brag about my kids! Here is the run-down of what they earned:

Sarah- Outstanding Attendance Award (0 Days Absent and wasn't Tardy)

Sarah - Teacher's Helper Award (from her 1st Grade Teacher)

Sarah - 14 points in AR Reading (most of the 1st graders only got 1 or 2 points because they just started taking reading tests in the spring. Sarah loved AR reading and tests!)

Sarah - Book-It (through Pizza Hut - Sarah read a certain amount of books each month of school to earn this award)
Sarah - Citizenship Award (Only 1 other student in her 1st grade section received this award. It is an award that goes to a person who is a good friend, hard worker and respectful to all. This is the award I am most proud of!)

It is a little more difficult to earn awards in 4th grade so I was quite happy with what Rachel achieved!

Rachel - 101.7 points in AR Reading (the 4th grade teacher requires 60 points for the year. I required her to get 100 if she wanted a Wii game. I guess I have to go shopping!)
Rachel - Book-It Award (Rachel had to read 20 min a day at home for 20 days each month to receive this award)

Rachel - Responsibility Award (Rachel was one of 3 students that handed in her signed assignment slips everyday. I think Mom and Dad should have gotten an award for getting on her every night to see the assingment slip. However, in the end it was her responsiblity to return it to her teacher so I guess she does deserve it)

Rachel - Stellar Speller Award (Only 1 student gets this award in the class. Rachel had the highest percentage of 100% spelling tests for the year in her class. Great job Rach!)

Okay - I'm done bragging!
