Earning Marbles!


Daily, when someone in our class does the "right thing," we add another marble to the "Do the Right Thing" jar. Last week the class suggested that we count all the marbles we have earned so far this year.
Each child counted out 10 marbles to put into a cup. When all the marbles had been placed into cups, we counted the cups by tens. The class was amazed that we had already earned 217 marbles!
Since then, there has been a great deal of interest in our class with earning more marbles. As of 2:00 today, January 13, we have 250 in the jar! Keep up the great work, class!
