Guidance with Mrs. Elfers:
Mrs. Elfers came this week to talk
with the kids about the difference
between tattling and reporting.
Tattling is when you tell an adult
about a problem that isn’t hurting
anyone and could be solved by
talking with the person. Reporting
is when you tell an adult when
someone could be hurt or is in
danger. She talked to the kids about
having a “Tattle Tongue” and the
problems it can cause. “Tattle
Tongue” occurs when kids tell the
teacher about a problem just
because they want to get someone
else in trouble. For example, if
someone uses the red crayon that
you wanted to use, you don’t need to
tell the teacher just so the student
gets in trouble. You can talk with
the other student and solve the
problem by yourself.

National Anthem Performance
As part of the kindergarten social studies
curriculum, the students will be learning the
National Anthem. The Scottish Corners
kindergarten classes have been invited to
sing the National Anthem between basketball
games at Karrer Middle School. We will be
singing on Tuesday, January 26th around 6:156:20pm, depending on how long the 7th grade
game lasts. W e will meet in the
commons at Karrer at 6:00pm. Parents
should drop kindergartners off with teachers
in the commons and go into the gym to get a
seat. Teachers will organize the students and
bring them into the gym to perform.
Admission is free for parents, siblings, and
grandparents. Get your cameras ready – it’s
a fabulous event for our kindergartners! We
are practicing daily here at school, but
please practice at home as well. A great
video of the song can be found on my web
page under “Links”. Thank you for your
support! The kids are excited! J
