Lion's Pride!

Dillan was awarded "Pride of the Lions" for his class today. Chris, Leah and I were able to go to the assembly to see him honored in front of the school. His teacher told me Thursday, and reminded me to keep it a secret.

We didn't tell him we were going to be there, but he finally spotted us anyway. We wondered if he figured it out, but I don't think he did.



His name was read, he got a sticker and a magnet for mom and dad to hang proudly on the fridge. Then he lined up with the other honored students. After the assembly, Mrs Iverson invited us back to the classroom to see the rest of the presentation. He lead the class back and got to sit on a big stool in front of everyone.



Then Mrs Iverson led the class in a cheer and had everyone in the class say why they thought Dillan was the Lion's Pride. It was cute to hear some of their responses. "Because he doesn't scribble" "Because he doesn't throw wood chips at other kids." She then pulled out a certificate that had listed her reasons for selecting him. You were chosen as the Pride of the Lions because, you follow directions. You complete your work on time. And you are working hard to be a good writer. You are a good citizen in Room 3.



She then explained what he would get to do for the week. Be the line leader, take the attendance to the office everyday, sit on the big stool in front of the class during reading time, all kinds of fun stuff.



We're so proud of you Dillan!
