Hello Doolittle Families,

Today was our first Doolittle Town Meeting of the year. Six times during the year the whole school gets together in the gym. Our Town Meetings are completely run by the students. Two 6th graders serve as Emcees and introduce groups of students who share “spotlights” on different things going on at our school. Some of the Spotlights that were shared today included:

• information about the 6th grade community service project - Recycling Club

• 6th graders telling about the upcoming Geography Bee

• students singing the Doolittle School Song, “Welcome to our World"

• Emcees introduced Quiz-O-Matic, a game show where students answer questions from their current curriculum

• Several students shared about their summer reading and the projects they created

• I spoke about using the Mood Meter. 

Town Meetings are a very important part of the Doolittle School culture. Students learn from one another, model appropriate behavior and practice their public speaking. 

Providing Independent Reading Time EVERYDAY is a must at Doolittle School
