Story Time With Our Principal

It was story time with Mr. Welburn on Friday.  The book this month was Do Unto Otters: A Book About Manners, by Laurie Keller.  Students enjoyed listening to the story about a bunny who had some otter neighbors move in.  The bunny thought that because they were different, they wouldn't be nice neighbors. Throughout the story, the bunny got to know them.  In the end, he found out they were actually great people and neighbors.  

The following are lessons students said they learned from the story:

"If you want someone to be nice to you, you should be nice to them."

 "Get to know a person before judging them."

"To say please and thank you.  Use your manners."

"Just cause someone is different doesn't mean they arent nice."

Thanks for reading to us Mr. Welburn.  Students and teachers both enjoy your stories and the messages that you share with us.
