Butterfly Award


Kali gave Josh and I an invitation to come to her school and see all that she had been learning over the last couple of months. Her class had been studying the life cycle of a butterfly and each kid had their own butterfly that they had watched go through the life cycle. Today they released them as part of their celebration of learning.


Then Mr. Dalton gave out two awards that he called "The Butterfly Award". He explained that is was an award for the students he felt came into first grade like a butterfly, ready to learn, lead and fly, and that they continued to do it throughout the entire school year. Well Kali was one of the two recipients. I was so proud of her. She really is a good girl.


Mr. Dalton typed up a paper to tell why he gave her this award and this is what he said:

Kali came to school ready to learn. She has been an amazing example to not only her crew mates but also to all those around her. She is constantly giving her best and being happy in the process. She shows a great love of learning that helps others around her to try hard too. We are so proud of her. Her smile makes everyone happy. And her willingness to help others makes them feel important. The other students like to be with her.
