December 16 Meeting

A Time of Giving

*During our previous meetings we had decided to create something to give to nursing homes. This way the students were actually creating something to give rather than buying something! During this meeting students worked on creating fleece tie blankets to send! Here are some photos of students working on the blankets!! :) Thank you to Luca's Aunt Debbie for donating the fleece and making this possible!! 






Spiritwear

*During indoor recess, student council members brought a friend to help distribute spirit wear sale items!

Fishcreek Student Council

Fishcreek Elementary Student Council

2014-2015

 

Welcome to our Student Council Blog! 
My name is Mrs. Heverly (the Art Teacher) and I am in charge of our Student Council this year! I will post Student Council updates and meeting agenda to our blog for kiddos who possibly miss a meeting or lose their agenda sheet! Also, I believe that this would be a good way to let everyone else know a little bit about Student Council and what we do! 

*Homecoming Parade*

Thank you to everyone who walked with us in the parade! Also, thank you to those of you who donated candy! :)

*Student Council Elections*

Third and Fourth grade Student Council members are able to run for a Student Council Office.

Fourth grade students can run for:  
  • President
  • Vice President
Third grade members can run for: 
  • Recording Secretary
  • Attendance Secretary 
This year, with the help of our Technology Specialist, Kristen Fudale, we decided to have the Student Council members create a video including their name, their room # and the office that they are running for. The members running for President were asked to include a short speech including their positive character traits to help explain why they would make a good President and why their classmates should vote for them. We did have a few members that chose not to run for office, but we were able to include them in the video as well! By using an iPad, we were able to record each member and combine the videos. These will be sent to all of the 3rd and 4th grade teachers to show at their convenience Thursday. This allows educational time to go un-interrupted and it prevents kiddos from making their speech 7 times. In addition, I believe that the video is comparable to a commercial that we would see around election time, which makes this process relative to real life elections. Friday morning from 8:45-9:00am, third and fourth grade students will vote and I will post the winners of the election on here Friday Night. Winners will be announced at school Monday morning! 
Good luck to everyone running!! :)
