Awards Day at School

Created by Beth Vorhaus, (2015) Nashville, Tennessee: Team Tennessee, Tennessee Voices for Children

Our school has an end of year celebration and awards ceremony.

Our school celebrates the great learning that has happened during the

year!

All of the school gathers in the gym

And, the principal and teachers give out awards for different things….

Medals

Trophies

100 % Attendance

ReadingMath

Spelling

Science

Sports

Ribbon

Not everyone will get an award at the ceremony.

If, I get an award I might feel excited, happy, & proud to be recognized.

If I don’t get an award I might feel frustrated, sad or mad because I wanted to get one.

If I get an award:

It is okay to feel: Some of my friends might not have gotten an award

and they might feel:

I should not brag and boast about getting the

award.

But I need to remember:

If I don’t get an award:

It is okay to feel this way:

But I need to remember…

To think of a compliment to say to a friend who got an award:

Good job, you worked hard!

Awesome work!

We can all celebrate learning!

Brainstorm with child/children how they can celebrate learning with each other everyday not just on awards day!

Add class pictures of children learning!
