Mind Your Peas and Carrots

Over the past few weeks, fifth grade diners have been practicing their dining etiquette in preparation for a formal luncheon hosted by parents on Thursday, February 26th.  We hope that you can't help but notice some of their social "savviness" with napkins placed on laps, knives and forks held properly, appropriate placement of utensils when dining has ended, and entertaining dining conversation (still working on this!!!) Mrs. Kelly's classroom will be staged as a fine restaurant where students will apply their impressive manners while enjoying a wonderful luncheon. Most importantly, we have learned that good manners has to do with being respectful and appreciative toward others, and showing that you know how to conduct yourself in a well-informed and savvy way.  Stay tuned for pictures from this dining experience!!!
