Sharpen the Saw

Third grade has been working hard on the 7 habits this year.  We have read books about the habits, found examples in movies and books, written goals, and, most importantly, worked at applying the habits to our lives.  Lately we have been working on habit 7--Sharpen the Saw.  We talked about how important it is to have balance in our lives.  As part of our work on this habit, we are going to create a class display of photographs of our class sharpening our saws, and we need your help.  Over the next week or two, look for a time when your child is doing something for this habit, snap a picture, and e-mail it to me or Mrs. Hreno.  We'll print it and add it to our class display.  Look at the poster below for more information about this habit.

 You could get a picture of your child eating a healthy snack or meal.  You might catch them getting exercise at basketball practice or playing in the backyard.  A picture could be sent of a family game night or your child practicing the piano.  The possibilities are endless!  Don't worry if you can't send a picture.  If we are missing any students, we will take a picture of them here at school practicing the habit so that each child can be part of our display.  This will be a fun habit to practice this week--we can't wait to see our display come together!
