Reinforcing+Activity+for+Chicken+Sunday

    ** Reinforcing Activity for Chicken Sunday: **  1. Students will take part in a year long service learning project. Teachers will send out a notice to parents informing parents and asking permission of students to participate in the learning project. The goal of the project is to promote good citizenship and the responsibilities we have as citizens. As the kids in Chicken Sunday worked to raise money to buy Miss Eula a new Easter Hat, our studetns will also work to ultimately give back to our community.  2. In class, we will discuss the organization Kids For Our Troops. This program is a charity organization for schools to participate in to raise money. We will have our students raise money by doing something good for someone else or helping someone else. Students will create and decorate a jar in which they will collect the money they earn. Students will also create thank you letters, and letters of appreciation to our veterans.  3. Students will do small chores at home and in the community and receive a small monitary reward that will go in their jars. At the end of every week studetns will bring their jars and empty it into the classroom jar. When we raise enough money, we will send the donations and letters of apprciation to our veterans to promote good citizenship.
